Another speaker at the same panel questioned the legality of the Food and Drug Administration's approval of RU-486, a drug that induces abortion.

The Saturday workshops were much smaller events, which focused on how a Christian can deal with everyday problems.

In "Finding and Keeping the Right Person," two couples tried to answer questions like, "How do you know when you're on a date?"

Even physical demonstrations were involved: one couple held hands as an example of how to indicate you are dating.

A more overtly religious event, the "Christian Festival: Making All Things New," organized by the Asian Baptist Student Koinonia, featured skits and songs like "The Questions of My Heart," about God giving meaning to life.

After most of the events, response cards were distributed to audience members asking what the organizers could do better and whether they would like to participate regularly in Christian groups and discussions on campus.
