Community Life

Since LeTourneau University is founded on strong Christian values, we believe that conduct and appearance are part of the visible testimony given by each student.  Evangelical Christians have always been guided by standards of health, moral integrity, social consciousness, and effective Christian witness.

In order to encourage individual behavior guided by these standards, students agree to abstain from a variety of activities, including (but not limited to):  1) violation of local, state, or federal laws; 2) participation in sexually immoral activities (including premarital, extramarital, and homosexual activity); 3) activities which disrupt the educational process of the University; 4) possession, use, or sale of tobacco, alcoholic beverages, or illegal drugs; and 5) acts which involve gambling or dishonest behavior.  Those participating in these activities are subject to denial of admission, cancellation of registration, or disciplinary action which may include warning, probation, suspension, or dismissal from the University.  The University, however, maintains respect and concern for the individual and provides a redemptive procedure with application of the principles of due process.

You will be provided the Student Handbook that is prepared each year to convey the detailed standard of conduct required of our students.  You may access information contained in the handbook by going to www.letu.edu/student-handbook.   That handbook is considered to be a formal contract between you and the University.  Your signature on the application for admission signifies an agreement to conform to the prescribed standards of LeTourneau University as found in the Student Handbook and University Catalog.
