All SSM students will attend required chapels as designated on the online chapel schedule (e.g. President,
Chancellor, President Emeritus). These required chapels are included as part of the 15 chapels per semester. SSM
students who are unable to attend chapels in person may fulfill their chapel responsibility by listening to the audio
files posted on
www.ciu.edu
.
Students register for chapel courses of the appropriate number (CHL 5001, 5002, 5003) at the beginning of the Fall
and Spring semesters. At the end of each semester, students must indicate on the online course site whether or not
they have met the attendance requirement for the semester.
