5 church information (continued) Please read the following Grace College Community and Lifestyle Statement thoughtfully before signing: Grace College strives to create and promote an atmosphere that will encourage students to develop the highest attainable degree of spiritual maturity within the framework of an evangelical Christian faith and worldview. In order to establish a wholesome environment, all students are asked to subscribe to standards and guidelines prior to admission. Grace College believes that: The Bible is the fully inspired Word of God, and its teachings are the final authority in matters of faith and life. Jesus Christ should be the foundation and center of every individual s life. As a life can never be complete without fulfillment in Christ Jesus and His Word, neither is knowledge complete except as it relates to God s eternal values. An important aspect of student life at Grace College is corporate worship and fellowship. Therefore, regular attendance at chapel and Sunday services (in an evangelical church) is required of all full-time students. As part of Grace College s commitment to a distinctive lifestyle and experience, students are to refrain from the use of alcoholic beverages, illegal drugs, tobacco, sexual misconduct, gambling, cheating, theft, coarse or obscene language, or any other conduct inconsistent with the goals and traditions of the college. Further, Grace College students are to abstain from morally degrading media and literature. It should be understood that any behavior which indicates that an enrolled student has little regard for living a life honoring to God, or whose conduct evidences a spirit of disregard for the college standards, will be sufficient reason for disciplinary action or dismissal. If admitted as a student to Grace College, I will strive to: grow intellectually and spiritually; earnestly seek to abide by and maintain the standards of Grace College; and work to make a positive contribution to the campus environment.
