Student Services

The following information is an excerpt from the Campbellsville University Student Handbook. Students are responsible to obtain, familiarize themselves with, and be responsible for the content of the handbook.

Student Services Philosophy

The Office of Student Services staff attempts to facilitate the student’s adjustment to the University environment. The responsibilities of developing the student begin once a student is admitted to Campbellsville University. The registration/orientation sessions held in spring and summer, as well as at the beginning of the semester, serve to acquaint new students with the campus and university life.

The Office of Student Services staff works together with the academic personnel to provide not only a strong knowledge base but opportunities for personal growth and development of our students. A major part of the educational process is learning about self and how to relate to others. With this philosophy, the Office of Student Services provides services to students to enhance the uniqueness of each individual in his/her developmental process.

Student Activities

The mission of the Office of Student Activities is to provide Christ-centered avenues for all students to connect, engage and grow in a manner that holistically develops students to participate in meaningful community, leadership growth, and opportunities to exercise gifts and talents beyond the classroom.

Counseling Services

The mission of the Office of Counseling Services is to provide confidential, professional, short-term counseling services in a Christian atmosphere to assist students dealing with emotional, psychological, social and/or spiritual needs.

Student Health Insurance Coverage

All full-time (enrolled in 12 hours or more) student-athletes must provide proof of health insurance coverage by Sept. 1 to the athletic trainer each fall semester they are enrolled in classes.  Those students enrolling for the first time in the spring semester must show this proof by February 1. If a student-athlete is covered by parents’/spouse’s insurance, a copy of the insurance card, giving company name, address and policy number is required in the Athletic Trainer’s office.  Health insurance is also mandatory for all students enrolled in the Nursing Program as this is a requirement for the University’s clinical sites. International students (residents of other countries whose primary reason for being in the USA is to enroll at Campbellsville University as a student - F-1 visa holder) are required to purchase the health insurance policy arranged through the University.

Identification Cards

All students must have a CU ID (identification card) to attend campus activities, to use the swimming pool and Tigers Den, to eat in the Winters Dining Hall and to attend open dorms in the residence halls. CU ID are made by the Office of Student Services. If a student loses his/her ID, another one can be purchased for $25. ID cards are not transferable and will be confiscated if presented by anyone other than the person to whom the card was issued. Students are admitted to most campus activities and events with a valid CU student ID. Resident student must always present their ID before eating in University dining facilities. The Student Government Association and other campus clubs may make nominal charges for events they sponsor.

Enforcement of University Policies and Regulations

The Office of Student Services is responsible for enforcing the policies and regulations for students on campus. When these policies and regulations are broken, disciplinary action is taken. Details of this process can be found under Judicial Council Procedures.

Campus Safety and Security

The Office of Campus Safety and Security consists of the director, several full-time officers, part-time officers and several work-study students. Officers are available seven days a week. This office aids in the enforcement of federal, state, local statutes and University regulations. While Campus Security Officers do not make arrests, they maintain a close working relationship with city, state and county law enforcement. This office strives to provide a safe and secure environment for students, faculty, staff and visitors. In addition, this office is in charge of protecting property, enforcing University policies and maintaining order. Officers lock and unlock buildings, patrol campus grounds, investigate suspicious acts, monitor parking lots, issue parking citations and jumpstart vehicles. The Office of Campus Safety and Security is located on the corner of North Columbia Avenue and 1 University Drive and can be reached by calling (270) 403-3611.

“CU ALERTS” Emergency Mass Notification System

CU Alerts is the campus emergency alert system that sends out important information that could be vital in keeping you safe.  Messages include severe weather information such as a tornado warning, campus lock-down procedures, and snow schedules.

The University offers this FREE service to all faculty, staff, coaches, and students. Please understand that the cell phone number you provide the University through the Office of Student Records (students) or the Personnel Office (faculty, staff, and coaches) will be the cell phone number the alert system will call.  At the beginning of each semester, the University uploads, or “opts-in”, all current faculty, staff, coaches, and students into the system to maintain an accurate and updated list of users and numbers.  You do not have to sign up for this free service because we automatically provide it for you!  If you decide to “opt-out” of this service or if your cell phone number changes within the semester, you can call the Office of Campus Safety and Security at (270) 789-5556 or come by the office located on the corner of North Columbia Avenue and 1 University Drive.

Parking Pass

The Office of Campus Safety and Security issues a parking pass to all administrative personnel, faculty, staff and students, free of charge, at the beginning of each fall semester or at such time as they become a member of the University family. To park on University property, this parking pass must hang on your rear-view mirror.  This is vehicle registration for cars, trucks and motorcycles.

Campers and camping trailers are not permitted on campus. Students are permitted to park on campus during semesters. Abandoned vehicles, including those inoperable, may be towed at owner’s expense.

Designated Parking

Designated parking will be limited to marked spaces reserved for the handicapped, campus visitors, unloading zones, the University President, Residence Hall Directors, Campus Security, service vehicles, post office, Chick-fil-A® Express and Starbucks®.

Food Service Policies

The University contracts food service through Pioneer College Caterers Inc.  Employees prepare three meals each weekday, and two on Saturday and Sunday in the Winters Dining Hall during regular semesters. The Director of Food Services for Pioneer College Caterers works in cooperation with the Office of Student Services in providing food service requests to the campus.

Residence Hall Guideline

All full-time Campbellsville University students must live in one of the University residence halls unless they are classified as a commuter (definition below). If the student is not classified as a commuter, they can request permission to live off campus and must meet the following criteria:

  • Be in good social standing with the University, having no current or prior semester judicial offenses, having a 2.5 GPA, as well as meeting ONE of the following conditions:
  • Be 22 years old or older.
  • Have completed 80 semester hours prior to the semester he/she is requesting to move off campus.
  • Or be a veteran of the U.S. military service
 
A resident student is defined as a full-time student between the ages 17-24 who lives in University campus housing.
A commuter student is defined as a student who is a dependent of a parent or legal guardian with whom he/she has physical residence, living within a 70-mile radius of Campbellsville University’s main campus.

English as a Second Language (ESL) students are not eligible to live off campus unless they are age 24 or older.

NOTE: Changing status from resident to commuter and moving off campus may affect and reduce financial aid. Students are encouraged to check with the Office of Financial Aid before making plans to change status and move off campus. Any student approved to change status and live off campus is automatically removed from the reservation list for a residence hall room and meal plan. Application forms to change status and live off campus may be obtained on TigerNet, under CU Life Handouts. Forms should be turned in to the Office of Student Services. Failure to complete and process this form could keep the student from completing registration and/or attending classes.

If a resident student discovers that she is pregnant, the University wants to provide her with support and resources to ensure the health of both the mother-to-be and the baby.  Therefore, it is imperative that the mother-to-be inform the residence life staff as soon as the pregnancy is determined.  The mother-to-be will be provided with the full support of the University’s resources to find suitable off-campus housing that both protects her and the baby and enables her to continue her education as long as possible.  It is best that the transition to off-campus living is accomplished by the end of the second trimester of the pregnancy.

Room Assignments

Room assignments are made by the residence hall staff with some priority given to previous occupants and in order of receipt of room requests. The contractual statement of the application must be signed and constitutes a binding agreement between the student and the University. Written request for specific room and roommates are honored whenever possible. THE UNIVERSITY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO ASSIGN ROOMS ACCORDING TO THE BEST INTEREST OF THE STUDENT AND THE UNIVERSITY. Requests for private rooms are honored only if space is available. In most cases, the student who has lived in the room for the longest period will have priority in assignment of that room. The cost for a private room is an additional $500 per semester.

Personal Appearance/Dress on Campus

As a private Christ-centered university, the students at Campbellsville University are expected to display maturity in selecting a style of dress consistent with the purpose and mission of the institution.

Houses and other campus buildings must be called in by dialing 911 immediately at the sound of the fire alarm.

Residence Halls Closed Between Semesters

Students will not be allowed to stay in the residence halls during Christmas break (between fall and spring semesters), spring break, or between summer school and the fall semester (end of July to the third week of August).

Substance Abuse: Prevention and Intervention Policy Statement

As a Christian institution of higher education, Campbellsville University complies with the federal regulations regarding the Drug-Free Workplace Requirements and, therefore, prohibits the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession or use of a controlled substance on its campus and with University-sponsored classes, events and activities. Therefore, the use of alcohol, narcotic drugs and other mind-altering drugs can be detrimental to the health of individual members of the University community, such use is in direct violation of the standards of the University. This policy applies to students, faculty, staff, coaches, and administration.

Policy on AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome)

Campbellsville University is committed to providing students, faculty, staff, and coaches with a comprehensive educational program concerning AIDS, based upon currently available medical information.

Campbellsville University shall treat AIDS the same way as any other disease that may be contracted. Victims of AIDS or other diseases will be permitted to work and/or enroll in courses unless the student or staff member’s personal physician or state or federal public health officials declare that the disease represents a substantial risk to the health and safety of other members of the community. In such instances, appropriate measures will be taken to protect the institution and the individual.

Legal and ethical considerations oppose the adoption of any policies or courses of actions which would deny ordinary privileges and rights, including privacy, to students, faculty, coaches or staff members who are known or suspected to be infected with the AIDS virus.

Students, faculty, staff, and coaches identified as HIV infected or having AIDS or an AIDS-related complex or any other communicable disease will not be barred from working, teaching, attending classes or participating in University-sponsored activities unless the appropriate vice president, in consultation with the individual’s personal physician or state health department official, determines that he/she presents a clear and present danger to the public health. All such decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis, will remain open to re-examination considering new information, and will consider facts such as the individual’s state of health and occupation.

The identity of the individual having AIDS or an AIDS-related complex will remain confidential. No specific or detailed information concerning individual patient’s medical condition will be released to the public. If a personal physician or state health department official determines that an individual’s medical condition represents a public health hazard and warrants limitation of activities, only essential administrative personnel will be informed on a need-to-know basis.

Custodial staff and food service workers will follow the guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control for the prevention of transmission of AIDS and other communicable diseases.

Philosophy of Behavior

Campbellsville University was founded with the goal of providing a quality education along with Christian values. Learning, we believe, best takes place where student, faculty and staff are guided by Christ-like concern and behavior. Moral and ethical integrity are essential to the environment the University seeks to uphold. All who work, study and learn at Campbellsville University have the responsibility to affirm the value of and work toward the maintenance of a peaceful and purposeful community.

The University is committed to remaining Christ centered, church connected, Baptist related and committed to changing lives, yet it is a non-sectarian institution that is committed to integrating Christian faith and learning. Many religious denominations and faiths are represented on campus. However, it is the responsibility of the entire community to be sympathetic to the stated mission, goals and behavior expectations of the University.

Student Behavioral Expectations

A student attends Campbellsville University voluntarily and is expected for the sake of the community to conduct himself or herself with a high standard of personal behavior on and off campus. A student whose conduct violates stated behavior expectations faces specific disciplinary sanctions.

Behavior expectations are clustered around the following individual and community values: worth of the individual, self-discipline, academic integrity and respect for property, the environment and community authority.

Worth of the Individual

Each person in our community intrinsically is a person of worth. The University values behavior that appreciates the cultural backgrounds of fellow students and respects the right of persons to hold differing attitudes and opinions. The value of the worth of individuals can be violated by behaviors such as harassment and indecent and lewd conduct.

Self-Discipline

Each person has the God-given capacity for developing one’s self fully as an individual. The University values behavior that leads to the physical, intellectual, spiritual, social and emotional well-being of the individual. Indecent and lewd conduct, gambling, disorderly conduct, manufacturing, possessing, consuming or distributing alcohol or other controlled substance, and intoxication are examples of behaviors which violate the value of self-discipline.

Academic Integrity

Each person has the privilege and responsibility to develop one’s learning abilities, knowledge base and practical skills. The University values behavior that leads a student to take credit for one’s own academic accomplishments and to give credit to other’s contributions to one’s course work. These values can be violated by academic dishonesty and fraud.

Respect for University Property and the Environment

Each person has the duty to treat with care and respect one’s own property, the property of others and University property. The University values behavior that recognizes the rights and privileges of owning and using personal and institutional property. Stealing and being in possession of stolen or lost property, vandalism, setting a fire and arson, tampering with fire and safety equipment, possessing firearms or weapons on campus, possessing and using fireworks on campus and unauthorized entry are examples of behaviors which violate the value of property and the environment.

Respect for Campus Community Authority

Each person recognizes that codes of conduct are necessary for prosperous and peaceful community life. The University values behavior that abides by and shows respect for the authorities that administer the rules, regulations and laws of the campus, city, state and community and as citizens of the community beyond our campus. The value of respect for community authority is violated by possessing, consuming, and/or distributing alcoholic beverages; intoxication; possessing, using and/or distributing illegal drugs; sexual misconduct; aiding, abetting or conspiring to engage in value violations; violating residence hall visitation guidelines; reckless behavior; fighting; lewd and indecent conduct; insubordination; unauthorized and/or unruly demonstrations; driving while impaired; habitually offending motor vehicle rules and regulations; creating a nuisance by talking, yelling, singing, playing a musical instrument, electronic device, etc. loudly enough to disturb members of the University community and committing a city, state or federal offense.

The Judicial Council

The Judicial Council shall be a nine-member impartial body consisting of one Chief Justice and eight Associate Justices. The nine-member committee shall be comprised of faculty and staff of Campbellsville University. The Judicial Council committee will be appointed by the Vice President for Athletics/Student Services. 

The ruling of the Judicial Council will be determined by a simple majority of the nine justices. The Council may meet and hear a case with only a quorum (five members) present. A judgment requires a majority vote. If a clear majority is unreachable, then the case must be dismissed and all charges against the student must be dropped.

The University President

The University President, or in the absence of the University President, the Dean of Students has the power to impose a immediate suspension when evidence exists that the student’s behavior, on or off campus, may be a threat to the health, safety and/or welfare of the students, faculty, staff or guests of the university. immediate suspension will include restriction from campus, denial to attend classes, and participation in other academic or extracurricular activities. A -immediate suspension by the University President, or in the absence of the University President, the Dean of Students, is non-appealable until such time that the University President deems that the threat imposed by the student is eliminated and the student’s immediate suspension is adjudicated.

Grievance Policy

If an individual has a grievance, they should complete a written claim by logging into the TigerNet system and going to the Academic Affairs tab.  The official university grievance form is on the bottom right side.  Once the grievance is filed, the student will receive an initial written response or follow up questions through their Campbellsville University student email account.  The Office of Student Services will review all student service related grievances and respond accordingly.      

Student Activities

The mission of the Office of Student Activities is to provide Christ-centered avenues for all students to connect, engage and grow in a manner that holistically develops students to participate in meaningful community, leadership growth, and opportunities to exercise gifts and talents beyond the classroom.

Student Activity Center (SAC)
