STUDENT HANDBOOK
Every student receives a Student Handbook, which
includes
information and guidelines about the library,
academic matters, student
affairs, student conduct and financial procedures.
Each student is
responsible to know the contents of the handbook and
will be asked to
sign a statement requiring the student to abide by
its guidelines.
CHRISTIAN CONDUCT
Northwest Baptist Seminary believes that it has the
responsibility to
provide guidelines for Christian conduct which will
help the student
discern between that which is God-honoring and that
which hinders
Christian testimony. Conduct should be motivated by
a personal love for
God and for others (Matt. 22:34-40). Students are
not to engage in things
expressly prohibited by Scripture, such as sexual
immorality, adultery,
drunkenness, homosexuality, theft, murder,
dishonesty, attitudinal sins and
sinful speech (Mark 7:20-23; Rom. 1:26-31; Gal.
5:19-21). In matters not
expressly addressed in Scripture, we expect students
to conduct themselves
in a manner consistent with biblical principles of
godly living. We
encourage students to develop the skill of living
wisely, making choices
that demonstrate one's ability to apply biblical
principles in areas of conduct
debatable in nature.
The student's family and its health are important to
the mission of
Northwest Baptist Seminary. Though study, work, and
ministry
responsibilities may be demanding, the Seminary
encourages students to
develop and maintain strong, biblically-oriented
family relationships. A
wife, husband, or children deserve loving care and
support while a student
is engaged in seminary study
