Brigham Young University. Religious Activities of Y Students Committee

The Religious Activities of Y Students Committee was organized in order to manage ways that the university provide regular religious structure into the lives of its students. However, in 1956 this committee was abolished after the creation of BYU's first official stake, which thereafter usurped the responsibilities of this committee. Chairmen of this committee include W.P. Lloyd (1952-1953) and Antone K. Romney (1953-1956).
