ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

In order for students to be prepared as Christian leaders, they must continue to develop their integrity and Christian character.  The right balance of hard work, academic study, spiritual discipline, relationship building, mentoring, and involvement in service is important to develop at an early stage in one’s university experience.  As faculty, staff, and administration work together for the development of the whole person, students develop a deep and meaningful commitment to our Lord while understanding their own particular calling to Christian character and career.  The Student Development Department partners with faculty to help students round out and balance their university experience with growth opportunities beyond classroom and coursework.
The Student Development Department at WJU exists to:
  1. Foster a community of learning where intellectual, emotional, spiritual, and physical dimensions of life can be developed;
  2. Provide opportunities which enable students to grow in their understanding of and ability to confront values, ideas, and cultures which may be new and different;
  3. Create an atmosphere in which students can cultivate and refine their temperaments and abilities and are empowered with life skills;
  4. Encourage students to pursue the goal of Christian servanthood on campus, in the church, in the community, and around the world.
Students at WJU are a special breed who want to push intellectual, spiritual, and emotional growth to the edges, not push the limits of extreme behavior.  WJU emphasizes positive attitudes and values based on biblical understandings of how to live in obedience to Christ, according to God’s grace.  The rule of conduct has been described as simply to live in a way which would bring glory to Christ and would be in the best interest of the campus community.  The University community seeks to foster responsible Christian freedom, which requires a wise stewardship of mind, body, time, abilities, and resources.  However, since all of us are in process and may need some direction, the University makes clear some additional expectations, which are outlined in the Student Handbook.
