University Standards of Behavior

As a Christian liberal arts university, Trevecca Nazarene University encourages each student to develop his or her abilities fully in the area in which God provided them. Developing these abilities in a Christian environment is marked by a warm, supportive relationship with others, which encourages being and doing what will contribute to those positive ends. For this reason, each class begins with a devotional/inspirational thought and/or prayer. A life style that is positive, considerate of the rights and privileges of others and based upon other ethical concepts will lead to achieving the most that life has to offer.

It is expected that whenever class is in session, all attention is directed toward whoever is leading the class. Any activity that disrupts or distracts the instructor or classmates is unacceptable. This includes hallway noise. Please move conversations away from any classes or testing in progress. In keeping with the desire to create an environment that is conducive to learning, please do not bring children to class.
