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.

“Hollywood keeps before its child audiences a string of glorified young heroes, everyone of whom is an unhesitating and violent Anarchist. His one answer to everything that annoys him or disparages his country or his parents or his young lady or his personal code of manly conduct is to give the offender a “sock” in the jaw.... My observation leads me to believe that it is not the virtuous people who are good at socking jaws.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“Faultless honesty is a sine qua non of business life. Not alone the honesty according to the moral code and the Bible. When I speak of honesty I refer to the small, hidden, evasive meannesses of our natures. I speak of the honesty of ourselves to ourselves.”
—Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)
“It is handsomer to remain in the establishment better than the establishment, and conduct that in the best manner, than to make a sally against evil by some single improvement, without supporting it by a total regeneration.”
