Policy Statement
While individuality is encouraged, the University has established some guidelines relative to health and safety, economy, care of property, privacy, and testimony.
Policy Procedures
Room decor should leave no doubt that this is the room of a Christian university student. This simply means that all decorations:
- Wall hangings, posters, computer screen-savers/backgrounds, etc. are to be in harmony with the standards of the University. This includes pornographic literature; obscene, suggestive, irreverent, or sacrilegious slogans; or room decorations or other material not considered supportive of university policy.
- Only sticky-tack is permitted to be used on all dorm walls.
- Students may not paint or wallpaper their rooms. Traffic signs or traffic barricades/barrels/cones, street signs, safety lights, etc. may not be in residence hall rooms/units. (Possession of such items may constitute theft and will not be viewed as a prank.)
- Blinds may not be removed or altered in any way and must be closed after dark. Metal hangers should not be placed over doors, hinges, frames, or walls behind doors.
- Objects may not be hung on or from the ceilings in any residence hall. Electrical fixtures are not to be altered in any way.
Failure to follow this policy may lead to disciplinary action.
