The information presented at the time of printing is a
statement of non-academic policies at Southern Adventist
University. 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 (423.238.2814) 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 Other Drug Use It is the policy of Southern
Adventist University to maintain a safe and healthful
environment for its students. A drug-free/alcohol-free
lifestyle for students is intrinsic to this policy. There-
fore, it is the policy that possession, use, manufactur-
ing and/or distribution of alcohol and illicit drugs by a
university student are strictly prohibited. If the vice
president for student services and residence hall deans
have reasonable suspicion or evidence, they may require
a student to submit to chemical screening analysis.
Therefore, by enrolling at Southern Adventist Univer-
sity, 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 (mari-
juana, mescaline, peyote, LSD, psilocybin), cocain,
amphetamines, codeine, heroin, morphine, 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 dis-
missal for a student. All students are subject to applicable
federal, state, and local laws related to this matter.

Convocation, Church, and Residence Hall Worship In

order to provide for spiritual fellowship essential to a
Christian campus, Southern Adventist University has a
regular program of student attendance at convocation,
church service, Sabbath School, and residence hall
worship. Convocations are held each Thursday at 11
a.m. During weeks of spiritual emphasis, convocations
are held on Tuesday as well. Occasionally, convocations
will be held in the evening or may begin at 10:30 a.m.
on Thursday. Double credit is given for some special
evening convocations. Convocations serve several pur-
poses including spiritual nurture and cultural enrich-
ment, as well as general information and community
fellowship. Convocations are held in the church or in the
lies Physical Education Center, depending on the nature
of the program.

All students are expected to attend at least 14
convocations each semester. Students who fail to
attend the required number of convocations will be
assessed $10 per convocation that they are short of the
required number. Students who have missed more than
five convocations may 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 to prevent future deficien-
cies.

Church and Sabbath School are designed to be the
apex of spiritual life at Southern Adventist University.
Attendance at Sabbath School and church services is
required of resident students each week. The Collegedale
SDA Church is the regular church for Southern Adventist
University students; however, students may attend
another area church by indicating in writing as they
leave the residence hall the Sabbath School and church
they will be attending that day. Students who do not
attend Sabbath School and church services regularly
may be subject to discipline.

The residence hall worship program is the third part

)

of the spiritual nurturing and fellowship program at
Southern Adventist University. Residence hall wor-
ships may be conducted by the residence hall deans,
invited guests, or by the pastor from one of the area
churches.

Assault Physical and/or verbal assault is not tolerated.
Students involved in this type of behavior will be
subject to discipline, including dismissal.

Automobiles and Motorcycles All motor vehicles operated
by students on the Southern Adventist University cam-
pus must be registered with the Campus Safety Depart-
ment within 3 days of initial arrival on campus. Current
proof of insurance and vehicle registration papers must
be presented to register vehicles. At the time of vehicle
registration, a hang tag and the Vehicle & Traffic
Regulations booklet will be issued.

Benefit Programs Any organization desiring a benefit
program must submit a proposal to the Administrative
Council through the Student Services Office.

Books The Campus Shop sells textbooks for all classes
offered by the university. Students have three weeks
after the first day of classes to return textbooks for
credit. No credit will be given without a receipt. Only
partial credit will be given for books written in or
damaged. At the end of each semester students may sell
back their used textbooks at the Campus Shop to its
designated used textbook buyer. ID cards are required
when selling books as a part of the Campus Shop's
system for locating books that have been reported lost
or stolen. Anyone attempting to sell stolen books will
be disciplined by the university administration.

Bulletin Boards Inappropriate bulletin board material may
be removed by Student Services Office personnel.

Camping Students who wish to leave campus for weekend
camping trips must submit their request through the
regular weekend leave process. The following guidelines
must be verified: specific identification of camping site;
approved married couple to accompany mixed gender
groups; separate sleeping arrangements for each gen-
der. Campus organizations are expected to follow these
guidelines on camping trips which they sponsor. Recre-
ational vehicle use on campus is restricted to desig-
nated areas. Arrangements for required reservations
and permits may be made by calling the Conference
Center at 423.238.2910.

Campus Clubs Over 20 academic department and special-
interest clubs are organized each school year. Each
organization must file a statement of purpose and
officers roster, including a faculty adviser, with the
Student Services Office for approval and formal univer-
sity recognition. Only approved organizations are to
function on campus.

Campus Safety The Campus Safety Office is located on the
ground floor of Lynn Wood Hall. Campus Safety may be
contacted 24 hours daily by calling extension 3390.
Services provided by Campus Safety include: on-campus
escorts after dark, assistance with vehicle jump starts
and lockouts, taking reports and investigating sus-
pected criminal activities, vehicle registration, fire
alarm monitoring, card access door and building con-
trol, locksmith services, transportation to local airport,
bus terminal, and to medicalappointments (fees charged
per transport).

CARE CARE is the acronym for Collegiate Adventists
Reaching Everyone, which is the student organization
for religious activities at Southern Adventist University.

Classroom Conduct Teachers and the institution reserve
the right to remove students from classes if their
behavior threatens the purposes of the class by exceed-
ing the bounds of normal academic freedom.

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 Services The director of counsel-
ing administers a formal program of counseling through
the Counseling Center. 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 re-
sults and other personal data which may assist in
counseling and guidance are kept on file in the Coun-
seling Center.

Crime On Campus Southern Adventist University is re-
quired by the State of Tennessee to report all criminal
activities occurring on campus to the Bureau of Inves-
tigation on a monthly basis. The university works
closely with local law enforcement departments to
report and investigate such activities. Faculty, staff and
students are responsible to report any known or sus-
pected criminal activities to the Campus Safety Depart-
ment. Campus Safety will do the initial investigation,
make appropriate reports, and notify the proper local
law enforcement authorities as needed.

Crime on campus statistics for Southern Adventist
University are published and available to the public,
upon request, at the Campus Safety Office. Statistics are
kept on the following criminal activities, in compliance
with TBI and FBI requirements: murder, rape, robbery,
aggravated assault, burglary, motor vehicle theft, liquor
violations, drugs, weapons, arson, and larceny.

What should be reported to Campus Safety?

• Suspicious activities, persons, or vehicles

• Criminal activities

• Unauthorized person(s) in closed areas

• Fire, intrusion, mechanical or vehicle alarms

• Accidents involving vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians
or personal injuries.

• Open doors/windows to buildings and areas sup-
posed to be locked.

• Missing persons

• Illegally parked vehicles

• Fires on grounds or in buildings

• Violation of safety regulations

• Harassing phone calls

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

Disabilities Students with disabilities should contact the
Center for Learning Success when they arrive on campus
by calling extension 2574 or 2838 or by visiting the
office. Southern Adventist University is in compliance
with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and is
dedicated to the elimination of architectural and preju-
dicial barriers which prevent any qualified person from
attending. Furthermore, SAU has established the Center
for Learning Success to assist in advocating for reason-
able accommodations. However, the university does not
assume responsibility for providing accommodations or
special services to students who have not voluntarily
and confidentially identified themselves as having a
qualifying disability or to those who have not provided
the Center for Learning Success with appropriate docu-
mentation of their disability.

Discipline All major disciplinary procedures are under the
direction of the vice president for student services.
Discipline for minor infractions may be administered by
the residence hall deans. However, head deans, consult-
ing 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 volun-
tary 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 Committee.
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 coun-
sel 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 are: citizenship probation,
suspension, on-campus suspension, withdrawal at the
end of the semester, immediate withdrawal, expulsion.

Citizenship Probation Citizenship probation carries
with it some or all 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 return to campus by
sundown.

5. A perfect record of presence for night checks and
regular attendance at classes, convocations, wor-
ships, Sabbath School and church services.

6. Loss of all student leadership positions, including
Student Association and religious activities.

7. No participation in off-campus public appearances
which represent the university except when in-
volved 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 university 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.

Withdrawat 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 withdrawat 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 studentis 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 presidentfor 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 dis-
tribute information via pamphlets or papers on the
campus of Southern Adventist University must receive
permission from the Administrative Council through the
Student Services Office.

skirts, skirts with deep slits.

c. Jewelry including bracelets, friendship bands,
necklaces, chains, medallions, earrings, rings, (ex-
cept wedding bands for married students). Medical
alert chains and bracelets are allowed. Students who
wear jewelry may be suspended and must pay a
$25 re-registration fee to be reinstated.
Guests at Southern Adventist University are encour-
aged 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
Finance Office which advises students as to the avail-
ability of loans, grants, and scholarships both from
private and government sources, as well as advising
students about account payment matters. Most finan-
cial aid is awarded based on need; therefore, students
are encouraged to fill out a financial 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 credited to the students' account.
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 Ac-
counts 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 assistance. Students or parents should contact
the Student Finance Office whenever their financial
situation changes.

Firearms, Fireworks, BB, Pellet, Paint Guns Items of
explosive nature, firearms, or pellet guns are not
allowed on the campus. Possession of exploding fire-
works or combustible chemicals 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 building is required to hold periodic fire
drills; when an alarm sounds, occupants are to follow
announced procedure promptly.

Fire Equipment Tampering with fire extinguishers, fire
alarms, smoke detectors, door closing devices, or other
fire protection 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
statements. 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 Services
Department, which serves meals 7 a.m. to 2 p.m.

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 plans
or engages in hazing or commits any act that could
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 family nurse practitioner in cooperation with a phy-
sician. It is located on the ground floor on the east end
of the Conference Center. Clinic hours are 8-12 and 1-
5 Monday through Thursday, and 8-12 Friday. A nurse is
also on duty after office hours, except during vacations
and summer, and may be reached for emergencies by
calling 423.238.2713. A three-room infirmary is main-
tained for overnight confinement if necessary.

Southern Adventist University requires that stu-
dents be covered by health insurance. Students who are
already covered with a similar insurance plan may
during registration request to be excluded from the
school insurance policy. Such students will need to
supply, atthattime, 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.

HIV Southern Adventist University is committed to acting
with Christian compassion toward all people with HIV.
The university 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
transmitted only through exchange of body fluid and
not through casual contact. Southern Adventist Univer-
sity 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 the HIV infected person 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 ser-
vices who will consult with the Student Services Com-
mittee. Such a request must include parental approval,
specifics regarding residence requested, and the rea-
sons an exception to the policy is being requested.
Generally only those requests which demonstrate defi-
nite 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 registration canceled. 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
registered 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 residence hall dean, the vice
president for student services, and the Student Finance
Office.

Married student housing is available through the
office of the vice president for finance. Only currently
enrolled students may live in student housing.

Interscholastic Sports Southern does not sponsor or
participate in athletic competition with other educa-
tional institutions.

Lost and Found All articles found on campus should be
taken to Lost and Found, located at the Service Depart-
ment, 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 donated to the Samaritan Center.

Marriage Except by special permission of the vice presi-
dent for student services, student marriages are not
permitted while a school term is in progress.

Motion Pictures All feature-length motion pictures and
videos must be approved for showing on campus or at
any school-related function by the Film Preview Com-
mittee. Requests for the showing of films should be
directed to the vice president for student services.

Music Standards 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 dedi-
cated. 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 performance so that the committee can be
called for the screening. Failure to have a program
properly screened may cause cancellation of the program.

Nondiscrimination Southern Adventist University does
not discriminate on the basis of race, color, gender,
ethnic or national origin, disability, or age in compli-
ance 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
the Health Service.

Personal Identification Students are to present proper
identification when requested to do so by administra-
tors, faculty, staff, dining hall, library, 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 property.

Public Display of Affection Students are expected to
conduct themselves with discretion and in a manner
which will not embarrass other people.

pus must be approved by Human Participants in Re-
search Subcommittee. Class-project questionnaires are
to be recommended by the instructor and submitted to
the vice president for student services for approval who
will forward them to the Human Participants in Research
Subcommittee.

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

Room Reservations After a student has been accepted by
Southern Adventist University and the $150 fee 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 all
residence hall obligations have been satisfactorily cared
for such as the room left 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 Satur-
day 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, including the Student Center.

Sexual Harassment Students of Southern Adventist Uni-
versity will not engage in or tolerate sexual harassment
as defined by the United States Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission thus: "Unwelcome sexual ad-
vances, requests for sexual favor, and other verbal or
physical conduct of a sexual nature." Any sexual behav-
ior which creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive
working or school environment is a violation of our
Christian standards as well as applicable state and
Federal regulations and should be reported to the
appropriate supervisor or the university president. A
student guilty of such activity will be subject to
suspension.

Skateboards Skateboards, in-line skates, and roller skates
on campus must be used with personal safety precau-
tions and with responsibility for the safety of others. NO
skating is allowed in buildings and in the following
areas: Fleming Plaza, tennis courts, walking/running
tracks, Industrial Drive, all parking lots, all public
streets, all private streets, and Collegedale Academy. It
is permitted in the following areas: Promenade, church
parking lot, sidewalks on campus, Pathfinder Building
driveway. All such activity is at the sole risk of the one
boarding, skating, or rollerblading. Safety equipments
mandatory-helmets, knee pads, elbow pads, wrist splints.

asked to desist the activity. Activities prohibited:

"waxing" curbs and handrails; rail sliding; jumping from
any docks. Individuals are not to be towed behind any
vehicles whatsoever. Southern Adventist University

ity. Violators will be asked to (1) Identify themselves

property and if violators refuse to leave and/or desist,
Campus Safety will take proper steps to secure compliance
(4) Collegedale Police Department will be called to
secure compliance with the law by appropriate legal
means (5) Remove "wax" from SAU's property.

Standards of Behavior 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 activities; practicing good study habits; select-
ing 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 beverages, to-
bacco and illicit drugs; gambling; dancing; improper
sexual behavior, including homosexual behavior; and
attendance at entertainments which are spiritually or
morally destructive. Students who engage in such
behavior will be subject to discipline.

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 belongings. 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.

Student Association The Student Association is an orga-
nization for the total student body and provides oppor-

University are encouraged to obtain part-time employ-
ment in the university's industries, services, or aca-
demic departments in order to help pay for their school
expenses. Students accepting employment with the
university are expected to be punctual to work appoint-
ments and to maintain their work schedule during the
entire semester, including examination week. To be
absent from work appointments without cause or previ-
ous arrangement or without notification in the case of
illness is sufficient reason for discharge. Students may
apply as volunteers for the fire department, ambulance
service, or the police reserves if they maintain a
cumulative grade point average of at least 2.00.

Privacy Act of 1974, and amendments subsequent to
this Act and HEW guidelines are available in the Student

them kept by any unit of the university. This request
should be made in writing to the administrator respon-
sible 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.

behavior which could lead to such an act will be placed
on an open-ended medical leave of absence. Readmis-

Network. There is one in the Grundset Room and one in
the game room for sports broadcasting.

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. It is the policy of Southern
Adventist University to remain a safe and healthful
environment. Possession, use, or distribution of to-
bacco products by Southern students is strictly prohib-
ited. Violation is grounds for disciplinary action up to
and including dismissal.

Vehicle Sales No personal or non-university owned ve-
hicles are permitted to be left on campus for the purpose
of advertising for sale.
