Common Ground
11 a.m., Broyhill Chapel
Common Ground is the Center for Religious and Spiritual Life's weekly offering for all MHU students, faculty, and staff. Common Ground is recognized as a place where faith/spirituality and reason come together. We believe that faith and reason are compatible with one another, not two separate and distinct parts. We also believe that Common Ground can and should be found among the various faith and non-faith traditions.
Common Ground programs are held at 11 a.m. in Broyhill Chapel each Tuesday classes are in session (unless otherwise noted).
Fiddling on the Hill
5-7 p.m., Spilman Hall
Rosin up your bow, tune up the banjo, get your dancing shoes out and join us at Fiddling on the Hill, MHU's monthly traditional jam session. These sessions, which are led by accomplished musicians (this week's leaders are Troy Harrison and William Ritter), are welcoming and open to all.
