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.
