We believe that the Scriptures clearly delineate principles which govern Christian conduct. Our behavior should not hinder the faith of other believers; we should do only those things which will glorify God and which will edify both the individual and the group. We recognize that we have a responsibility to maintain an appropri– ate testimony before unbelievers. We beheve that to aid personal spiritual growth, for the sake of Christian testi– mony and the achievement of college purposes, we must abstain from the use of alcoholic beverages, tobacco, and the nonmedical use of narcotic drugs; and not participate in social dancing, gambling, attendance at movie theaters, the use of unwholesome media materials, and membership in secret societies. We also believe that Christians have an obligation to dress appropriately and to have sincere respect for the Lord's Day. We prayerfully seek to serve Christ in an atmosphere free from personal attitudes of distrust, dishonesty, selfishness, damaging criticism, disrespect, unethical conduct, and irreverence.
