We at Milligan adopt specific rules on the basis of our belief that God’s Word, as the final rule of faith and practice, speaks on many matters pertaining to personal conduct. Therefore, behavior that conflicts with Scripture is unacceptable. Historically, communities have also developed guidelines that help put into practice basic moral and social principles. Such standards serve as a guide toward worthwhile goals relevant to one’s academic, spiritual, social, and physical well-being. Specifically, the Milligan College student agrees to abide by a lifestyle commitment in which he or she refrains from the use or possession of alcoholic beverages and illegal drugs. The student also agrees to refrain from pornography, profanity, dishonesty, sexual immorality, unethical conduct, vandalism, and immodest dress. Students are expected to observe the Lord’s Day in worship and to seek to serve Christ in an atmosphere of trust, encouragement, and respect for one another.
