教堂出席和豁免概述

出席

• 出席教堂是强制性的所有全日制学生，是毕业要求
• 学生 swipe their student ID cards (or sign in with a chapel worker if a card is missing or not working) upon entering the chapel in order to receive credit. No credit will be given to students who arrive more than five minutes late or who leave before the conclusion of chapel at 11:35am
• All full time students are allotted chapel absences equaling 20% of the total number of required chapels (this usually equates to 8 skips/semester) These absences are to be reserved for planned and unforeseen conflicts (which includes sickness, appointments, etc).

豁免

• 学期豁免: Off-campus students may qualify for exemption from mandatory chapel attendance and may have the requirement adjusted or possibly waived. A 教堂 豁免 Form can be picked up at the 教堂 Office and must be submitted during the first three weeks of the semester.
• 扩展的缺失: If a student is absent from chapel for an extended period of time (3+ chapels in a row) due to illness or other extenuating circumstances, we will give you back 80% of the credits you missed. The student must email a doctor’s note in the case of extended illness to the chapel office within 15 days of the absence in order to be considered for this partial exemption.
• 运动员: If a student misses chapel due to a conflict with their athletic team’s schedule, we will give them exemption for that day. Each coach will be responsible to send the date(s) and travel rosters for days students miss chapel.
• 学校组织旅行： If a student misses chapel due to a conflict with a school organized trip, they may be exempt from chapel that day. The chapel department will be notified of the absence by the office of Academic Affairs and adjust their account accordingly.
• 兼职的学生: 学生 who are off-campus and have part-time status are automatically exempt from mandatory chapel attendance and do not have to apply for exemption. Part-time students who live on campus are required to attend chapel as normal.
• 其他: 学生 who miss chapel for sickness, doctor’s appointments, counseling, or any other circumstances resulting in one or two consecutive absences, are required to use their built-in skips. 这些缺勤没有资格获得豁免。

化妆学分

• 学生 who miss more than their allotted number of absences during a given semester will be required to attend extra events for chapel credit (conferences, announced events) or attend a chapel makeup viewing in order to meet their requirement.
• On selected dates throughout the semester, there will be makeup chapel viewing sessions in the chapel. 学生 will come at the designated time, scan in to get credit, and watch the recorded chapel videos. 将有严格的禁止技术政策。 Additionally, sleeping and completing other classwork will not be permitted.
• 学生 who owe fifteen or more chapel summaries for multiple semesters may face suspension or other disciplinary action. There will be an opportunity to watch up to 15 makeup chapels. If a student needs more credit than that, they will be subject to disciplinary consequences.
• In order to stay on track with chapel credits throughout the semester, we will place holds on accounts prior to pre-registration if you have skipped more than 4 chapels (half of your allotted skips). This hold will prevent you from pre-registering for classes for the following semester. If your schedule does not allow you to attend the chapel makeup viewing dates, you are responsible to email chapel@covenant.edu 安排时间在我们办公室看化妆小教堂。

其他

• 所有教堂内禁止使用电子设备。 If a chapel office worker or any staff member sees you on your electronic device your chapel credit for that day will be taken away.
• Graduating seniors who have not completed chapel requirements for each semester of enrollment will have their diploma held and will not be allowed to participate in commencement or be considered a graduate of 威尼斯人平台.
