The Black Student Fellowship was a Christian organization formed in 1975 to give black students a place to worship on campus. Soon after its founding, the name was changed to the United Students Fellowship to be more inclusive. Membership flourished in the 1980s and 1990s, as the Fellowship expanded. Many members of USF also belonged to the New Horizons Choir.
