STUDENT REGULATIONS
Some of the aims of the University are to help establish in students
high, Christian standards of conduct, individual responsibility, and
faith in the worth and dignity of individuals. Information about
housing, student regulations and other aspects of campus life may
be obtained by writing or calling the Campus Life office. The
Student Guide is published at the beginning of each school year and
it details various important provisions which each student should
read and understand. The Student Guide, rather than the catalog,
determines the current regulations and policies which impact
campus life. On reasonable notice to the students, the Student
Guide may be amended from time to time. Some of the regulations
in the Student Guide are summarized as follows:
* Possession or use or sale of illegal drugs shall forthwith result in
automatic suspension from the University.
* Possession or use of alcohol is subject to strict disciplinary
measure and may result in suspension.
* Students must conform to the current dress code.
* Many activities are expressly listed in the Student Guide as
prohibited, and are subject to disciplinary sanctions, including:
smoking or other use of tobacco on campus, violation of
residence hall visitation policies, falsification of University records,
cheating, theft, sexual immorality, vandalism, hazing, and
possession of firearms.
* Class attendance is an important student responsibility; students
may be dropped from classes or failed for excessive absences.
By enrolling in the University, students signifi their \willingness to
observe Christian standards of honesty, ethics, and morality. They
agree to respect the personal and property rights of others. They
agree to fulfill their responsibilities under all published University
regulations and to obey local, state, and federal laws.
Attendance at daily assemblies is required except that students are
permitted 15 unexcused absences during a semester. Excused
absences will be granted by Campus Life in cases of documented
extended illnesses, extraordinary emergencies, attendance at funerals,
etc. However, requests for excused absences must be made in a timely
manner, either before or as soon after the absences as reasonably possible.
After the 15th absence, students may be given assigned seating.
After the 15th such absence, further absences will be disciplined in
accord with the Student Guide.
Single students must receive university, approval before they are
allowed to live off-campus. Generally, third- and fourth-year
students are permitted to live off-campus as are students who live
with their parents and maintain their home addresses on file in the
Residence Life office (see Residence Life for more details). An Off
Campus Housing Petition is required of students who are eligible to
live off campus.
