Code of Conduct
Students attending Greenville College are expected to adhere to a lifestyle that is codified and asks that the student agree to certain principles that the school calls "Christ-honoring." Students are not allowed to drink alcohol, use tobacco products or illegal drugs, or engage in sexual activity outside of marriage. These principles are highlighted in a document known as the Lifestyle Statement which all students must sign in order to attend the college.
Students are not required to sign a statement of faith, but are required sign the "Lifestyle Statement" referred to above. Additionally they must fulfill at least 36 chapel credits each semester. Some of those credits can be filled by attending dorm bible studies, providing community service work or attending other activities approved by the chaplain. Certain students who are unable to attend chapel due to work or family life may apply for a chapel exemption.

Famous quotes containing the words code of, code and/or conduct:
“... the self respect of individuals ought to make them demand of their leaders conformity with an agreed-upon code of ethics and moral conduct.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
“Wise Draco comes, deep in the midnight roll
Of black artillery; he comes, though late;
In code corroborating Calvin’s creed
And cynic tyrannies of honest kings;
He comes, nor parlies; and the Town, redeemed,
Gives thanks devout; nor, being thankful, heeds
The grimy slur on the Republic’s faith implied,
Which holds that Man is naturally good,
And—more—is Nature’s Roman, never to be
scourged.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“It seems certain, that though a man, in a flush of humour, after intense reflection on the many contradictions and imperfections of human reason, may entirely renounce all belief and opinion, it is impossible for him to persevere in this total scepticism, or make it appear in his conduct for a few hours.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
