Bahá'í Club Events:
These events are open to all. A loving and respectful atmosphere
fostering the independent investigation of truth is maintained. We
seek to be Columbia's most open and friendly association. We are
a student group whose membership is by no means confined to Bahá'ís
and we welcome all to join us. We organize regular and diverse activities
that aim to bring people together in a spirit of fellowship, to promote
independent and prejudice-free thought, to foster unity among different
racial, ethnic and religious groups on campus, and to collaborate with
groups with similar aims.
