Southern A^dv^^ntist: Uni 



StLident: HaincUbook 9S-9^ 



The information presented at the time of printing is a 
statement of nonacademic policies at Southern Adventist Uni- 
versity. The university reserves the right to change policy 
without prior notice. All students are expected to be aware of 
and abide by Southern Adventist University policies which 
appear in this handbook. The Student Services Office (238- 
2814) or a residence hall dean should be contacted if further 
information regarding a particular item is desired. 

ACADEMIC POLICIES Academic policies are presented in detail 
in the University Catalog. Students should study this catalog 
to become familiar with their particular programs of study. 

ALCOHOL AND DRUG USE It is the policy of Southern Adventist 
University to maintain a safe and healthful environment for 
its students and employees. A drug-free/alcohol-free lifestyle 
for employees and students alike is intrinsic to this policy. 
Therefore, it is the policy that the possession, use, manufac- 
turing, distribution of alcohol and illicit drugs by a univer- 
sity student or employee is strictly prohibited. If the vice 
president for student services and residence hall deans have 
reasonable suspicion or evidence of drug use, they may 
require a student to submit to chemical screening analysis. 
Therefore, by enrolling at Southern Adventist University all 
students agree to submit to drug testing. Furthermore, the 
university considers the serving of alcohol as inappropriate. 
Illicit drugs include such substances as opium derivatives, 
hallucinogens (e.g., marijuana, mescaline, peyote, LSD, 
psilocybin), cocaine, amphetamines, codeine, heroin, mor- 
phine and other drugs prohibited by law. This definition does 
not include lawfully prescribed drugs which are being taken 
under a physician's care. Violation of this policy is grounds 
for disciplinary action— up to and including immediate 
discharge for an employee and permanent dismissal for a 
student. All employees and students are subject to appli- 
cable federal, state, and local laws related to this matter. 
Additionally, any violation of this policy will result in 
disciplinary action as set forth in the Southern Adventist 
University policy statement on alcohol use and illicit drugs. 



ASSEMBLY, CHURCH, AND RESIDENCE HALL WORSHIP In order 
to provide for the spiritual fellowship essential to a Christian 
campus. Southern Adventist University has a regular pro- 
gram of student attendance at weekly assembly, church 
service. Sabbath School, and residence hall worship. Assem- 
blies are held each Thursday at 11 a.m. During weeks of 
spiritual emphasis, assemblies are held on Tuesday as well. 
Occasionally, assemblies will be held in the evening or may 
begin at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday. Double credit is given for 
some special evening assemblies. Assemblies serve several 
purposes, including spiritual nurt;ure, cultural enrichment, 
as well as general information and community fellowship. 
Assemblies are held in the church or in the lies Physical 
Education Center, depending on the nature of the program. 

All students are required to attend 14 assemblies each 
semester. Students may receive one assembly credit each 
semester for attending either one Anderson Organ Series 
concert or one Chamber Series concert. Students who fail to 
attend the required number of assemblies will be assessed 
$10 per assembly that they are short of the required number. 
Students who have missed more than five assemblies will be 
subject to cancellation of registration. Reinstatement will 
occur only after the above penalty plus a $25 re-registration 
fee are paid, and arrangements are made not to become 
deficient in attendance again. 

Church and Sabbath School are designed to be the apex of 
the spiritual life at Southern Adventist University. Atten- 
dance at Sabbath School and church services is required of 
resident students each week. The Collegedale SDA Church is

sleeping arrangements for each gender. Campus organiza- 
tions are expected to follow these guidelines on camping 
trips which they sponsor. 

CAMPUS CLUBS Over twenty academic-depart:ment and special- 
interest clubs are organized each school year. Each organi- 
zation must file a statement of purpose and officers roster, 
including a faculty adviser, with the Student Services Office 
for approval and formal university recognition. Only ap- 
proved organizations are to function on campus. 

CAMPUS LEAVES Late leaves: Under normal circumstances, late 
leaves give the resident 60 additional minutes to be out of 
the residence hall after closing time. They are available at 
the front desk and must be approved in advance by a dean. 
Late leaves may be requested for the following reasons only: 
(1) emergencies, (2) special occasions, and (3) out-of-town 
travel. Late leaves may be requested for any night of the 
week except Friday and Saturday nights (exceptions— out- 



of-town travel and emergencies). Late leaves cannot be 
obtained during the Sabbath hours. Call-in late leaves will 
not be accepted by a desk worker. If an emergency keeps 
residents from returning to the Residence Hall by curi^ew, 
they should call and speak to the dean on duty. 

Overnight leaves: Any time a resident leaves campus 
overnight (even on a school sponsored trip) an overnight 
leave is required. Overnight leave request forms may be 
obtained at the front desk of the residence hall. Leaves must 
be approved BEFORE leaving campus. Parental approval may 
be required for any leave. 

Residents are expected to remain off campus at all times 
during the dates listed on the leave request. Violation of this 
policy will result in the cancellation of the leave and the 
suspension of overnight leave privileges. If a leave must be 
cancelled or the resident returns early from a leave, a dean 
is to be informed and the resident should be in the residence 
hall by curfew. Failure to do so will result in the suspension 
of overnight leave privileges. A change in destination should 
be reportied to a dean. 

Weekend leaves must be submitted by 11 p.m. on Thursday, 
except for those qualifying for graduating senior privileges 
(see Senior Privileges in the Residential Life Handbool(). 

Other aspects of the overnight leave policy are as follows: 

1. If the period of proposed leave from the campus includes 
a work or class appointment, suitable arrangements must 
be made with the work superintendent or academic vice 
president respectively. 

2. If under 21 years of age, ft-eshmen residents may be 
limited to overnight leaves which involve a maximum of 
eight nights of absence from campus per semester, exclud- 
ing vacations. 

3. Students on Citizenship Probation are limited to overnight 
leaves which involve a maximum of one weekend to home 
only per calendar month excluding vacations. 

4. If an emergency situation makes it impossible to return to 
the residence hall by date and time stated on the leave, 
residents have the responsibility of telephoning their 
residence hall dean to request an extension of time. 
Falsification of leave: Falsification of a leave will result in 

disciplinary action, including suspension.

CLASSROOM CONDUQ Teachers and the institution reserve 
the right to remove students from classes if their behavior 
threatens the purposes of the class by exceeding the bounds 
of normal academic freedom. 

UNIVERSITY STANDARDS Students are expected to establish a 
Christian lifestyle which fosters maximum spiritual, mental, 
physical, and social growth. Such a lifestyle will include 
engaging in prayer, Bible study, and Christian-service activi- 
ties; practicing good study habits; selecting a balanced and 
nutritious diet and scheduling adequate periods of rest; 
participating in wholesome recreational and leisure-time 
activities; and relating responsibly and respectfully to other 
persons. Behaviors which do not promote such a lifestyle and 
are expressly forbidden include the use of alcoholic bever- 
ages, tobacco and illicit drugs; gambling; dancing; improper 
sexual behavior; homosexuality; and attendance at enter- 
tainments which are spiritually or morally destructive. Stu- 
dents who engage in such behavior will be subject to 
suspension and/or dismissal from the university. 

CONTACT SPORTS In order to protect the physical well-being of 
its students and the liability of the university. Southern 
Adventist University prohibits participation in sports with 
excessive physical contact including tackle football. 

COUNSELING AND TESTING SERVICE The director of counseling 
administers a formal program of counseling through the 
Counseling and Testing Office. This program provides various 
aptitude and psychological tests as well as interest and 
personality inventories which are available for students who 



wish to gain insight into various problems which may be 
associated with their university experience and planning for 
life. University entrance examination results and other 
personal data which may assist in counseling and guidance 
are kept on file in the Counseling and Testing Office. 

CURFEW Residence halls are closed at 11 p.m. Sunday through 
Thursday, at 10 p.m. on Friday, and at midnight on Saturday. 

DISCIPLINE All major disciplinary procedures are under the 
direction of the vice president for student services. Disci- 
pline for minor infractions may be administered by the 
residence hall deans. However, head deans, consulting with 
the opposite residence hall, have the authority to suspend 
students in the event that the vice president for student 
services is not available. A student who may be subject to 
discipline is counseled by the appropriate residence hall dean 
and/or vice president for student services regarding the 
student's rights, including voluntary withdrawal from school 
and possible disciplinary actions. The student meets with 
appropriate university officials which will always include the 
vice president for student services and usually a dean from 
each residence hall. A decision regarding the appropriate 
disciplinary action is made. The student accepts this decision 
or has the right to appeal to the Discipline Review Commit- 
tee. The vice president for student services may have the 
student meet with the Discipline Review Committee before 
making his decision. A student facing discipline regarding 
matters that may involve charges by civil authorities may 
request permission to bring legal counsel to the Discipline 
Review Committee. This request must be in writing, at least 
one full day prior to the committee meeting. Such legal 
counsel is present only to guide the student and does not 
have the prerogative of addressing the committee directly. 
Categories of discipline: citizenship probation, suspen- 
sion, on-campus suspension, withdrawal at the end of the 
semester, immediate withdrawal, expulsion. 

Citizenship probation: Probation carries with it some or all 
of the following restrictions: 

1. One approved weekend leave per month to home. 

2. No use of an automobile, driving or riding, except as 
allowed in 4. below. 

' 3. No late leaves. 



4. Only one off-campus leave per week. No personal car use. 
Must obtain a ride for this leave via permission from a 
dean and must return to the campus by sundown. 

5. A perfect record of presence for night checks and regular 
attendance at classes, assemblies, worships. Sabbath 
School and church services. 

6. Loss of all student leadership positions, including Stu- 
dent Association and religious activities. 

7. No part:icipation in off-campus public appearances which 
represent the university except when involved in class 
activity. 

8. Other restrictions deemed appropriate. 

If a student on citizenship probation fails to comply with 
these restrictions, he/she is subject to suspension. 

Suspension: A student is required to leave campus for a 
specified period or the complete term in which case he/she 
is dropped as a registered student. A student who has been 
suspended indefinitely must submit his request for univer- 
sity readmission to the vice president for student services. 

On-campus suspension: A student is allowed to remain on 
campus under restriction of citizenship probation and is 
specifically told in writing that any other violations of 
university regulations will result in immediate dismissal. 

Withdrawal at end of semester or session: Completion of 
course work for that semester or session will be allowed if the 
student's conduct is acceptable for the interim. 

Immediate withdrawal: A residence hall student who 
accepts the option of withdrawing agrees to move away from 
the university community; unwillingness to do so may result 
in formal dismissal 

Expulsion: Students who are expelled will not be eligible 
for readmission to Southern Adventist University. 

A student who receives any discipline will receive a letter 
from the vice president for student services or a residence 
hall dean. This letter will be made part: of the student's 
official record and will be used as reference in evaluating 
future behavior and may be used when making future 
recommendations. Copies will be sent to the student's 
parents and to the residence hall dean if a student is a 
residence hall student. Copies of disciplinary letters are not 
sent to parents of independent students. 



A student who has been administered discipline by the 
deans of either residence hall may appeal the decision to the 
vice president for student services. The vice president's 
decision may be appealed to the Discipline Review Commit- 
tee. The president is the final point in the appeal process. 

DISTRIBUTION OF INFORMATION Anyone who desires to 
distribute information via pamphlets or papers on the 
campus of Southern Adventist University must receive per- 
mission from the Administrative Council through the office 
of Student Services. 

DRESS CODE As part of its overall educational effort, Southern 
Adventist University has established a specific dress code. 
Since Southern Adventist University is a Christian institu- 
tion, cleanliness, modesty, and neatness are the prevailing 
principles in this code. Southern Adventist University dis- 
courages attire which it considers excessive personal adorn- 
ment. In addition Southern Adventist University expects 
students to develop a sense of professional appropriateness, 
dignity, and respect regarding dress and grooming. 

All students must dress modestly, and be neat and clean 
at all times and adhere to the following requirements: 

1. Men: Pants with shirts and/or sweaters. 

2. Women: Dresses, skirts, or pants with blouses, sweaters, 
or jackets. 

3. Hair clean and neatly styled. Radical styles must be 
avoided. Men: Hair should be off the shoulders, and

sport coats or sweaters and dress shirts and ties. Women- 
dresses or skirts with blouses/sweaters. 

8. Shortis are not to be worn to class, assembly programs, in 
the church, library or dining hall, except that shorts may

fee to be reinstated. 

Guests at Southern Adventist University are encouraged to 
adhere to the same standards as do the students and staff. 

EVENSONG Each Sabbath a sundown worship service is held in 
the church, beginning about 20 minutes before sundown. 
Residence hall students are given worship credit for attending. 

FINANCIAL SERVICES The university maintains a Student Fi- 
nance Office which advises students as to the availability of 
loans, grants, and scholarships both from private and gov- 
ernment sources, as well as advising students about account 
payment matters. Most financial aid is awarded based on 
need; therefore students are encouraged to fill out a finan- 
cial aid package including the federal form (Free Application 
For Federal Student Aid) in order to qualify. After all financial 
aid information is complete and accurate, the university's 
Student Finance Office will process it and send the students 
an award letter, telling them which financial aid they could 
receive. Once the aid is accepted and the students enroll at 
SAU, the financial aid, including any loans applied for from 
the Federal Family Educational Loan program, will be cred- 
ited to the students' accounts. All students are required to 
make a $2,500 advance payment at the beginning of the 
school year even though they may have been awarded 
financial aid. Students are encouraged to work with a 
Student Accounts counselor to develop a financial budget to 
cover any remaining amount owed. Southern offers a cash 
discount for paying the yearly or semester's estimated 
expenses in advance. Students and parents who do not 



prepay will be billed monthly. Bills must be paid by the due 
date in order to continue enrollment at SAU and in order to 
continue receiving government or university financial assis- 
tance. Students or parents should contact the Student 
Finance Office whenever their financial situation changes. 

FIREARMS AND FIRECRACKERS Items of explosive nature, 
firearms, or pellet guns are not allowed on the campus. 
Possession of or exploding fireworks or combustible chemi- 
cals in the residence halls or on the campus is expressly 
prohibited. Violators of this regulation will be fined up to 
$100 and will be subject to suspension or dismissal. 

FIRE DRILL Each residence hall is required to hold periodic fire 
drills; when an alarm sounds, residents are to follow an- 
nounced procedure promptly. 

FIRE EQUIPMENT Misuse of fire extinguishers, fire alarms, 
smoke detectors, door closing devices, or other fire protec- 
tion equipment will subject a student to a $100 fine and/or 
other discipline. 

FIRE HAZARDS Use of candles, incense, open-flame lamps, or 
any other item that could cause a fire- or smoke-related 
incident will result in a fine of up to $100. 

FOOD SERVICE Three nutritious meals are served daily in the 
dining hall, on the third floor of Wright Hall. Students may 
use their ID cards to charge meals on their monthly state- 
ments. A $2 surcharge is added to each meal charged without 
an ID card. Cash is also accepted in payment. Students who 
throw food in the dining hall are subject to a $100 fine. 

The Campus Kitchen, located in Fleming Plaza, is a fast- 
food restaurant, also operated by the Food Service Depart:- 
ment, which serves meals 7 a.m. -2:30 p.m. each day. 

K.R.'s Place is located in the Student Center. This is a fast- 
food place that is open from 1-4 and 6-8 p.m. 

In addition, the Food Service staff will provide special 
luncheons and banquets for groups who make requests to the 
director of food service two weeks in advance. 

The Food Service and Campus Kitchen are normally closed 
on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, New Year's Day, and the 
Sabbath after Christmas. Students residing on campus must 
make their own arrangements for meals on these days by 
eating at other establishments or by carrying out food the 
days previous to those holidays. 



HAZING AND OTHER IRREGULAR ACTIVITIES A student who 
conspires to engage in hazing or commits any act that 
injures, degrades or disgraces, or tends to injure, degrade or 
disgrace a fellow student will be subject to discipline, 
including dismissal. 

HEALTH SERVICES Care may be obtained at the Student Health 
Service by all permanent residence hall residents and all 
village students taking seven or more hours during the 
school year or three or more during the summer. The Student 
Health Service is administered by a nurse director in coop- 
eration with the university physician. Clinic hours are posted 
and the physician makes daily calls at the Health Service 
Monday through Friday. He leaves when all who are waiting 
have been cared for. A nurse is also on duty after office hours, 
except during vacations and summer, and may be reached for 
emergencies by calling 238-2713. A three-room infirmary is 
maintained for overnight confinement if necessary. 

Southern Adventist University requires that students be 
covered by health insurance. Students who are already 
covered with a similar insurance plan may during registra- 
tion request to be excluded from the school insurance policy. 
Such students will need to supply, at that time, written 
evidence from their parent's employer or local insurance 
agent which contains the company name and policy number 
under which they are covered; otherwise, coverage must be 
purchased through the university health insurance plan. 
Health Service is located on the ground floor on the east end 
of the Conference Center. 

HIV Southern Adventist University is committed to acting with 
Christian compassion toward all people with HIV. The univer- 
sity is also committed to protecting the members of its 
community from exposure to HIV. A detailed procedure to 
accomplish these goals has been officially established and is 
on file in the office of the vice president for student services. 
Current medical information indicates that HIV is trans- 
mitted only through exchange of body fluid and not through 
casual contact. Southern Adventist University believes that 
abstaining from sexual relations outside of marriage and 
from intravenous drug use is the most effective way to avoid 
exposure to HIV. 
It is not the normal practice of Southern Adventist 



University to exclude a person with HIV from the student 
body. However, if the university concludes that its resources 
are not sufficient to provide the services required, or if the 
HIV victim proves to be a disruption of the regular university 
program, such an exclusion may be implemented. 

Southern is committed to updating its students and 
faculty with the latest accurate information about HIV and 
will regularly review its HIV policy toward that objective. 

HORSES Due to the damage it causes to the landscape, 
horseback riding is not allowed on campus. 

HOUSING AND RESIDENCE REQUIREMENTS The total social and 
educational program at Southern Adventist University is 
based on the premise that this is a residential university, not 
a commuter school. Single students enrolled for more than 
three semester hours, who are under the age of 23, and who 
do not live with their parents or legal guardians, must live 
in the residence halls. Exceptions are made for students who 
have completed a bachelor's degree or four years of college. 
In order to live elsewhere a student must present a written 
request to the vice president for student services who will 
consult with the Student Services Committee. Such a request 
must include parental approval, specifics regarding resi- 
dence requested, and the reasons an exception to the policy 
is being requested. Generally only those requests which 
demonstrate definite financial need which off-campus living 
will correct, or which verify other extenuating circumstances 
will be approved. Requests will not be considered if a student 
is on citizenship probation. Students who do not abide by 
the established residence requirements will have their reg- 
istration cancelled. When a student has been given special 
permission to live off campus no change in residence may be 
made without the permission of the vice president for 
student services. 

A student who lives in the residence hall must be regis- 
tered in classes. Anyone who drops classes will need to make 
living arrangements outside of the residence hall. Any 
exception to this policy must be cleared through the resi- 
dence hall dean and the vice president for student services. 
Married student housing is available through the office of 
the vice president for finance. A no-longer enrolled or 
■accepted student will be askf ' ^^o vacate university housing. 



INTERSCHOLASTIC SPORTS Southern does not sponsor athletic 
competition with other educational institutions. 

KEYS Room keys are issued to all residents without charge. A 
substantial fee is charged for each key lost or not returned 
when a resident checks out of the residence hall. 

KITCHENETTES Each residence hall has a kitchenette where 
residents may prepare food. 

LAUNDRY ROOMS Coin-operated washers and dryers are avail- 
able in laundry rooms in each residence hall. These rooms are 
closed 30 minutes before sundown on Friday and are open 
again 30 minutes after sundown on Saturday. 

LOST AND FOUND All art;icles found on campus should be taken 
to Lost and Found, located at the Service Department, 5071- 
B Industrial Drive. Valuables are kept there to be claimed by 
those who have lost them. Articles not claimed within one 
year from the time they were turned in will be taken to the 
Samaritan Center. 

MAIL Mailboxes are located in the foyer of each residence hall. 
Mail is delivered each morning Sunday through Friday. A 
resident's mailing address is the room number, followed by 
the name of the residence hall, Collegedale, TN (Talge ZIP 
Code: 37315-0569) (Thatcher ZIP Code: 37315-0529). Be 
sure the correct residential ZIP code is on the envelope. 

MARRIAGE Except by special permission of the vice president 
for student services, student marriages are not permitted 
while a school term is in progress. 

MOTION PICTURES All feature-length motion pictures must be 
approved for showing on campus or at any school-related 
function by the faculty Film Preview Committee. Requests for 
the showing of films should be directed to the vice president for 
student services for approval by the Student Services Com- 
mittee according to the following guidelines: 

1. The Student Association may show a maximum of four 
films per semester with no more than one per year being 
a public benefi't program. 

2. The Art:ist Adventure Series has the option of showing two 
films per semester. 

3. The Classic Film Series may present four films per semester. 

4. Other campus organizations may show a feature film in a 
program restricted to the membership of the sponsoring 
group and invited guests. No campus organization will be 



allowed to show more than one such film during the 
academic year. 
MUSIC STANDARDS 

1. Music performed or reproduced anywhere on campus is 
expected to be in harmony with standards of good taste 
applicable to the occasion and in keeping with the ideals 
of spiritual commitment and personal relationship with 
God to which the university is dedicated. To assist with 
the responsibility, a screening committee is appointed 
by the university president each year to screen all 
student programs before they are presented. Student 
groups should contact the chairman of the screening 
committee in ample time before their scheduled perform- 
ance so that the committee can be called for the 
screening. Failure to have a program properly screened 
may cause cancellation of the program. A musical group 
organized by students for public performances must be 
approved by the Student Services Committee. 

2. Rock music of any type is not acceptable on campus. It 
has a debilitating effect on refined sensibilities of the 
Christian and can have almost hypnotic and demonic 
possession of the human mind and body with its wild, 
loud, steady and primitive beat. 

NONDISCRIMINATION Southern Adventist University does not 
discriminate on the basis of race, color, gender, ethnic or 
national origin, handicap, or age in compliance with all 
applicable federal and state regulations. 

PAW Partners At Wellness is the student wellness program 
directed by a student. It is under the responsibility of Health 
Services. 

PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION Students are to present proper 
identification when requested to do so by administrators, 
faculty, staff, cafeteria, hbrary, residence hall, and security 
personnel. 

PETS Pets are not allowed in the residence halls. There is a $50 
fine for students having pets in their rooms, excluding fish. 

PROTECTION OF PERSONAL PROPERTY Unoccupied student 
rooms, as well as automobiles, bicycles, and motorcycles 
parked in campus parking areas, should be kept locked at all 
times. The university cannot accept responsibility for stolen 
items/money, or damage to personal propert:y. 



PUBLIC DISPLAY OF AFFECTION Students are expected to 
conduct themselves with discretion and in a manner which 
will not embarrass other people.

Sabbath 6 a.m. to 12 p.m. 

Residence hall lobbies are open for visiting by nonresi- 
dents according to the following schedule:

Friday 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. 

Sabbath 6 a.m. to 12 p.m. 

RESIDENCE HALL VISITORS Southern is a private school. The 
residence halls are, therefore, private buildings and function 
for the needs of the students who reside there. Talge Hall is 
the men's residence. Thatcher Hall is the women's residence. 
Members of the opposite gender may visit only in main 
lobbies. Any nonresident may be requested to leave at any 



time. All nonresident students and visitors must leave the 
residence halls at closing time unless other arrangements 
have been made. Guests are expected to abide by general 
campus and residence hall regulations. Any off-campus 
visitor who has been invited to stay as an overnight guest in 
the appropriate residence hall must make arrangements with 
the dean on duty upon his or her arrival on campus and fill 
out a Visitor Registration Card. Visits should be limited to 
three nights. If a longer stay is arranged, a charge of $5 per 
night will be placed on the resident's account. 

RIGHT OF ENTRY The university reserves the right for a 
residence hall dean, the dean's representative, or a univer- 
sity campus safety officer to enter and inspect a student's 
room whenever necessary. A student accepts this authoriza- 
tion when renting a room in a residence hall. 

ROOFS Any individual who is on the roof of a university building 
without authorization will be fined $100. 

ROOM ASSIGNMENTS Residents are not to move from one room 
to another without first making arrangements with a resi- 
dence hall dean. 

ROOM FURNISHINGS AND CARE Furnishings include beds, 
desks, chairs, drawers, window drapes, and carpet. Students 
should bring their own bed linens, pillows, bedspreads, 
towels, washcloths, and wastebaskets. Drapes and furnish- 
ings are not to be removed from the room. Wallpaper and 
contact paper should not be put on the walls. Poster putty 
and/or masking tape should be used to hang posters. Nails, 
tacks or cellophane tape are not to be used for this purpose. 
Residents are responsible for the condition of their rooms 
and will be charged for damages, as well as custodial 
expenses, if a room is left in need of repair and cleaning. 
Rooms and furniture are not to be painted. 

The Plant Services Department is responsible for maintain- 
ing facilities and furnishings in the residence halls, includ- 
ing painting, electrical and plumbing repairs and installa- 
tion of drapery rods, hooks, etc. Residents are to leave 
requests for such services at the service desk. 

Students' rooms are to be decorated in harmony with 
university standards. Items such as alcoholic-beverage con- 
tainers and pictures/ posters of nude or scantily clad persons 
are not to be displayed. 



Cooking appliances must not be used in student rooms. 
State health regulations prohibit cooking in sleeping rooms. 
Such appliances may be used in residence hall kitchenettes. 

ROOM OCCUPANCY Students will be charged rent as long as 
their belongings are in the room. During times when student 
teaching or internships, etc., require extended absences 
from the campus, storage is available at a reduced rate. 

ROOM RESERVATIONS After a student has been accepted by 
Southern Adventist University and $150 has been paid as a 
housing deposit, a confirmed room reservation can be 
made. Tentative reservations made before July 1 without 
a deposit will be held beyond that date only if the deposit 
has been received. This deposit is held in reserve until the 
student graduates and/or permanently moves out of the 
residence hall. Refunds are not made until after 30 days of 
residency and until all residence hall obligations have 
been satisfactorily cared for, with the floor, walls, woodwork, 
and furniture of the room clean and undamaged. 

SABBATH OBSERVANCE The Sabbath is God's time for people to 
meet with Him in an atmosphere free from non-spiritual 
distractions. To facilitate this the university gives primary 
attention to worship, rest, and Christian fellowship and 
service from Friday sundown until Saturday sundown. During 
these hours students are expected to refrain from secular 
activities including secular entertainment, secular music, 
shopping, sports, school studies, work, and other similar 
activities. 

SELLING Selling or soliciting of goods or services in the 
residence halls must be approved by the head dean. Sales- 
people or peddlers are not allowed to function on the 
university campus. This includes the Student Center. 

SEXUAL HARASSMENT Students of Southern Adventist Univer- 
sity will not engage in or tolerate sexual harassment as 
defined by the United States Equal Opportunity Commission 
thus: "Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual 
favor, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual 
nature." Any sexual behavior which creates an intimidating, 
hostile, or offensive working or school environment is a 
violation of our Christian standards as well as Title VII of the 
Civil Rights Act of 1964. A student involved in such activity 
will be subject to suspension. 



SKATEBOARDS Skateboards, in-line skates, and roller skates on 
campus must be used with personal safety precautions and 
with responsibility for the safety of others. NO skating is 
allowed in the following areas: Fleming Plaza, the track, 
tennis courts. Industrial Drive, and inside buildings. 

SOUND EQUIPMENT Sound equipment is not to be heard 
outside a student's room at any time. Failure to comply with 
this policy will result in the removal of the equipment. Head 
phones are recommended. 

STEALING Protection against stealing is a serious challenge for 
an institution in which hundreds of people reside close to 
each other in a relatively open manner. Students should 
always take precautions to protect their personal belong- 
ings. Since thieves conduct their activities surreptitiously, 
the act of individuals taking without permission any item 
which they do not own will be regarded as stealing. Students 
who are involved in theft will be subject to suspension or 
dismissal. 

STORAGE A locked storage room is located in each residence 
hall. Residents may keep luggage and cartions at their own 
risk in these storage rooms. All such items are to be tagged. 
The university will assume no responsibility for the protec- 
tion of stored items. 

STUDENT ASSOCIATION The Student Association is an organi- 
zation for the total student body and provides opportunity 
for leadership training. Student Association officers are 
responsible for planning specific student activities on the 
university campus and for acting as a voice for the student 
body. The officers are elected and appointed each spring to 
serve for the following school year. Publications of the 
Student Association include the Joker, a pictorial directory 
of students and staff; Numerique, a listing of student phone 
numbers; Southern Accent, the campus newspaper; Campus 
Chatter, a weekly news/announcement sheet; and Southern 
Memories, the university yearbook. Students enrolled for a 
minimum of eight semester hours are members of the 
Student Association and are eligible to receive the various 
services provided by the Student Association. 

STUDENT CENTER Lounges, a snack shop, a game room, and a 
prayer room are available for student use on the third floor 
of the Student Center building. Student Association offices, 



the chaplain's office, the CARE office, the Counseling Center, 
and the Student Services Office are located there. The 
computer center is housed on the first floor of the building 
and the dining hall is on the second floor. 

STUDENT EMPLOYMENT Students at Southern Adventist Univer- 
sity are encouraged to obtain part-time employment in the 
university's industries, services, or academic depart:ments in 
order to help pay for their school expenses. Students 
accepting employment with the university are expected to 
be punctual to work appointments and to maintain their 
work schedule during the entire semester, including exami- 
nation week. To be absent from work appointments without 
cause or previous arrangement or without notification in the 
case of illness is sufficient reason for discharge. Students 
may apply as volunteers for the fire department or the 
ambulance service if they maintain a cumulative grade point 
average of 2.00. First semester freshmen must have a 
satisfactory secondary school record. 

STUDENT RECORDS Copies of the Family Education Rights and 
Privacy Act of 1974, and amendments subsequent to this Act 
and HEW guidelines are available in the Office of Student 
Services. Students have the right to inspect and review 
official records, files and data directly related to them kept 
by any unit of the university. This request should be made in 
writing to the administrator responsible for the record. 
Requests are to be processed within five days from the date 
the request has been filed. The Act stipulates a reasonable 
fee may be charged if copies of the material in the file are 
desired. 

STUDY ATMOSPHERE A study atmosphere is to be maintained in 
the residence halls at all times. Musical instruments are not to 
be played in the residence halls (see "Sound Equipment"). 

SUICIDE Any student who attempts suicide or displays behavior 
which could lead to such an act will be placed on an open- 
ended medical leave of absence. Readmission will occur only 
after a therapy program is documented and appropriate releases 
are signed. 

TELEPHONES Each residence hall room is equipped with a tele- 
phone, and a triple-jack for connection of auxiliary equipment 
such as modems. The service includes voice mail. It is not 
recommended that answering machines be connected, since our

system does not work properly with them. SAU has made 
arrangements with College Billing Inc. for long distance services 
at preferred rates. Credit cards may also be used, although the 
lines available are limited - especially at peak periods such as 
Friday evening. Students may not accept collect calls on 
dormitory lines. 

TELEVISION AND STEREO SETS Television sets are not allowed 
in residence hall rooms. Radio and stereo equipment are 
allowed; however, the volume must be adjusted so the 
equipment is not heard beyond the room where it is placed. 
Televisions will be confiscated and a fine imposed. Stereo 
equipment will also be confiscated if not used according to 
all the above guidelines. The residence hall deans are not 
responsible for the safety of any equipment confiscated 
during the school year. 

A television viewing room is available in each residence 
hall. Programming on the sets in these rooms is under the 
direction of residence hall deans. There are also three 
television sets located in the Student Center. One in the 
amphitheater is restricted to Cable News Network. The other 
in the lounge is for special events and programming as 
determined in advance by the Student Activities Committee. 

THEATER ATTENDANCE The university does not condone 
attendance at motion picture theaters. 

TOBACCO Although tobacco is not an illicit drug, nicotine has 
addictive properties and is responsible for a variety of 
health-related problems. Itis the policy of Southern Adventist 
University to remain a safe and healthful environment. 
Possession, use, or distribution of tobacco products by 
Southern students is strictly prohibited. Violation is grounds 
for disciplinary action up to and including dismissal. 

TOWING Individuals on skateboards, sleds, bicycles, skis, 
blades, or any similar conveyances are not to be towed 
behind any vehicle whatsoever. Students who violate this 
restriction are subject to cancellation of university registra- 
tion which will include a $25 reinstatement fee. Repeat 
violators will be suspended. 

VEHICLE SALES There is no parking for vehicle sales on campus 
except in residence hall lots. During work hours, exceptions 
may be made to this policy at the Motor Pool and SOMCO 
Motors if arranged with the depart:ment head. 



VIDEO TAPES Current copyright laws prohibit universities and 
their sub-organizations from showing video tapes that are 
intended for home use only. Special licensing fees must be 
paid to show such tapes. Clubs, depart;ments, and student 
organizations must adhere to this restriction. Any videos 
that are to be shown must be approved in advance by the Film 
Subcommittee. 

WEEKEND/OVERNIGHT LEAVES Any time a student leaves the 
residence hall overnight, a leave slip must be filled out and 
approved by a dean in advance. Weekend leave slips must be 
turned in to the main desk by 11 p.m. Thursday. They will 
then be approved or denied and returned to the student's 
mailbox. Freshmen are limited to eight overnight leaves per 
semester. Any leave other than to home may need approval 
of parents or guardian. Falsification of overnight leaves will 
result in disciplinary action, which may include suspension. 

WELLNESS Partners at Wellness (PAW) is the student wellness 
program at Southern Adventist University. It is directed by 
Health Services and the Student Wellness Subcommittee. 

WORLD MISSIONS Information on Student Missionary or 
Taskforce opportiunities is available in the Chaplain's Office. 

WORSHIP AHENDANCE (Residence Halls) The strength to live 
a Christian life is possible through an on-going relationship 
with God. Christian living and spiritual commitment are 
dependent primarily on personal devotions. The Lord can 
bless each student through the experience of the worship 
program, but residence hall worships can never fulfill the 
need for a private devotional life. The deans urge students 
to take the time to meditate and study on their own. This will 
make residence hall worships and other religious services 
much more meaningful. 

It is necessary to require attendance at worship in order 
to maintain the spiritual uniqueness of Southern Adventist 
University. Purposes for worship are: 

1. To offer a daily reminder of who we are, why we are 
here, and where we are going. 

2. To develop a sense of Christian community. 

3. To give the student strength and encouragement 
through Christian fellowship. 

4. To enhance the spiritual growth of the students. 

5. To establish/strengthen the habit of daily devotions. 



Worships are held Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednes- 
day twice each day, at 7:00 p.m. and 10:45 p.m. Students are 
required to attend residence hall worship once a day, three 
of the four days (Sunday through Wednesday). A student may 
choose to attend Sabbath sundown Meditations in place of 
one day of residence hall worship. All resident students are 
required to attend Friday evening vespers unless they have 
an approved weekend leave. Worship cards will be given out 
until the scheduled starting time of the program.

Blue worship excuse cards are available at the front desk. 
Excuses are given consideration when the student misses a 
whole day of worship options because of one single circum- 
stance beyond the student's control. Excuses are not 
considered for a single worship appointment or for Sabbath 
Evensong. Excuse cards must have the appropriate signa- 
tures and be turned in by the following Monday. Students 
who have a direct conflict in meeting all worships in a single 
day may petition for a permanent excuse for that day. 
Petition forms are available at the front desk. 

Seven skips are allowed each semester. Three of these 
skips may be for Friday vespers. The eighth skip will result 
in disciplinary restrictions for up to 21 days. The ninth skip 
will result in disciplinary restrictions for up to 42 days. The 
tenth skip will make the student subject to suspension.
