affection. These couples are to refrain from all expressions of physical
affection on and off campus except for hugs as noted above, holding hands,

Engaged couples are also to be prudent in setting appropriate boundaries
to maintain purity and a godly example. Here again, we strongly encourage
the establishment of accountability relationships with mature believers.
Expressions of affection on and off campus are to be limited to appropriate
hugs, holding hands, and brief kisses.
Out of sensitivity to our unmarried students and campus atmosphere,
married students should be exemplary models of appropriate public physical
expressions of romantic affection.
Classroom Behavior:
