Association Of Smith Pagans Aims To Educate

Author: Chrysanthe Peteros   Source: Smith College Sophian (MA)

Title: ASSOCIATION OF SMITH PAGANS AIMS TO EDUCATE

Here on Smith campus, students often try to educate themselves about diverse socio-cultural groups. Paganism, however, seems to be a topic that has escaped many, perhaps reflecting the public's general perception of this minority religion as completely mystifying.

Smith has its own Association of Smith Pagans (ASP), with a very familiar structure and set of practices. Much like any other organization on campus, the group has weekly meetings - each Sunday in the Campus Center - as well as regular events. This March, ASP will host a full moon ritual and Ostara, a Wiccan festival of the spring equinox in which participants welcome the warmth and light of the season.

I served as ASP president back in the late 90s... glad to see they are still going strong! Yay, ASP!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought the article would be about Pagans who are also Smiths (either the name or the workers of metal) .

I got excited, thinking they were going to be talking about 'smith pagans' (i.e. blacksmiths, goldsmiths, etc) rather than a place...silly me!
