CAMPUS LIFE: STUDENT<br />
ACTIVITIES & SERVICES<br />
The goal of <strong>Lee</strong> <strong>University</strong> is to be a Christian community—a place<br />
where people share their lives with one another and meet whatever<br />
needs are present: academic, spiritual, and social. Such a community<br />
calls its members into accountability for their actions, their theology,<br />
and their lifestyles. This quest for Christian community is the foundation<br />
for the mission and purpose of <strong>Lee</strong> <strong>University</strong>, including campus<br />
life and student activities. The services provided, as well as the rules and<br />
regulations by which we live, evolve from the commitment to the<br />
Christian community.<br />
CHRISTIAN COMMITMENT<br />
<strong>Lee</strong> <strong>University</strong> gives full allegiance to Jesus Christ as Lord and<br />
desires that each member of the university community grow in<br />
Christian discipleship. The university takes pride in its heritage of service<br />
in the Kingdom of God and in its affiliation with the Church of<br />
God. Based upon this commitment and tradition, the university provides<br />
a wide variety of opportunities for spiritual enrichment and service.<br />
OPPORTUNITIES FOR CHRISTIAN SERVICE<br />
Practical Christian service opportunities are provided through the<br />
Spiritual Life office. Religious clubs and music and drama groups conduct<br />
outreach ministries in the local community and in many areas<br />
throughout the nation. Prayer and Bible study groups are available for<br />
interested students. One of the strong areas of emphasis is the opportunity<br />
for students to travel throughout the world participating in shortterm<br />
mission trips.<br />
CHAPEL<br />
The university is firmly committed to corporate worship and views<br />
chapel as an integrated and indispensable part of the learning experience.<br />
Chapel services are conducted on Tuesday and Thursday mornings and<br />
on Sunday evenings. Alternative chapels are provided on Tuesday mornings<br />
in the Dixon Center and Wednesday nights and Thursday mornings<br />
at “The House.” Weeks are set aside for special convocation during the<br />
fall and spring semesters.<br />
All full-time students (12 hours or more) are required to attend<br />
