Geneva = Fail
 

Going to college at Geneva in the spring... check out some of these hip and happening policies :6 All I gotta say is:

BIBLICAL PRINCIPLES
Morally unacceptable practices according to Biblical teaching are not acceptable for members of the Geneva College
community. Specific acts such as drunkenness, stealing, the use of slanderous or profane language, all forms of harassment, all forms of dishonesty, involvement in or depiction of occult or satanic activity, sexual sins (i.e. premarital sex, cohabitation with a member of the opposite sex, rape, adultery, homosexual behavior, abortion, etc.), and the use or display of obscene and/or pornographic materials will not be tolerated. (See Romans 1:18-32, Galatians 5:19-21, Ephesians 4:28; 5:18, Colossians 3:5-9, I Thessalonians 4:3-5, Hebrews 13:4-5.)

In addition, Scripture condemns such attitudes as greed, jealousy, pride, lust, bitterness, needless anger, an unforgiving
spirit, and harmful discrimination and prejudice that is based on race, religion, gender or socioeconomic status. While these attitudes may be difficult to detect, they are as subject to the judgment of God as outward forms of disobedience to Him.

When under the jurisdiction of the College (i.e. on College property, at College-sponsored events or on College-sponsored trips), students are expected to practice discretion and restraint and honor the standards of the College. Some of the behaviors prohibited on campus are: social dancing; use or possession of alcoholic beverages, use or possession of illegal drugs, or use of any form of tobacco; vandalism; extreme public displays of affection; membership in secret societies; and possession or use of weapons of any kind.

DANCING
Geneva College does not allow on-campus dancing, except for square dancing, line dancing, and traditional folk dancing. In addition, the College does not allow college clubs, classes, organizations, athletic teams, etc. to sponsor off-campus dances that feature dancing except for square dancing, line dancing, and traditional folk dancing.
Students who individually desire to dance off campus may do so, but are encouraged to make wise decisions about the
environments to which they go. Geneva College’s name or the name of any official campus organization is not to be used in the advertisement (posted either on or off campus) of off-campus dances. Appropriate posters can be displayed on campus bulletin boards and/or walls using “sticky-tac” (not tape) after the advertisement has been approved in accordance with the stated policy found on page 186.

We desire our students to be:
1. BIBLICALLY PRINCIPLED - Members of the student body are to abide by the wisdom of Scripture and are
expected to avoid behavior that is in conflict with its teaching.
Examples of behavior which constitute a violation of this Community Standard include, but are not limited to:
a) Observance of the Sabbath. Members of the community are not to participate in varsity competitions, play
organized sports on College playing fields and/or lawns, vacuum, or do laundry on Sunday. In addition, College sponsored events should not be scheduled on Sundays.
b) Satanic or occult behaviors and/or the possession of satanic or occult material.
c) Gambling - exchange of monies or possessions through betting and chance - on campus, at a College-sponsored
event, or online through the college network.
d) Use of profanity.

SEXUALLY PURE - All members of the student body are expected to respect the gift of sexuality that God has given
and to make wise decisions regarding sexual purity. Students are expected to refrain from involvement in sexual
relationships until marriage and to refrain from the use of pornography.
Examples of behavior which constitute a violation of this Community Standard include, but are not limited to:
a) Involvement in sexual sins including but not limited to sex outside of a marriage covenant and/or homosexual acts.
b) Possession, sale, distribution, or use of pornographic material including but not limited to magazines, posters,
videos, DVDs, photographs and/or computer-generated images.

VISITATION
Geneva College does not permit open visitation. However, the following hours are intended to provide students with the
ability to have members of the opposite sex visit their rooms. Those residents participating in visitation must keep their
room door completely open and the room well lit with either an overhead light or ample accessory lighting. Young Hall,
Geneva Arms, and the Schoolhouse residents are to entertain in the front living room only.
VISITATION HOURS
Wednesday ...7:00 p.m.-12:00 a.m.
Friday ...6:00 p.m.-1:00 a.m.
Saturday...6:00 p.m.-1:00 a.m.
Sunday... 1:00 p.m.-5:00 p.m.
Members of the opposite sex may also visit each other in visitors’ lounges seven days a week from 10:00 a.m. to midnight
(1:00 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays).

So whats the punishment for most of these if you're caught?

The College Community is obliged to challenge these attitudes when evidenced, and assist the offender in seeking God’s forgiveness and help, in order that she/he might grow in grace and righteousness.

CLIFFSNOTES: Am I going to college or prison? I highlighted some of the funnier parts...

There's a huge particle accelerator being built there...

We had a speaker come in and talk to us about it. Apparently Geneva is a beautiful place, but the babes are kind of lacking.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

why would you want to go to that college? they practically forbid you from even talking to girls, let alone banging them. i guess thats fine for a virgin like you though O0

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

no dancing? ----, seriously?

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

wow dude we use a bunch of the same rules in my prison. like the day room is open till 10:30 on weekdays and friday and saturday till 1 am. thats sad, your an adult. and i love how they call the rule breakers offenders. thats what we call them too. lol funny stuff.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

I've already been scheduled to go to this place for a while, everythings already in place. I just happened to read some of their policies today and had to laugh haha. I probably shouldn't bring my Satanic's Bible with me, I might get expelled haha

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

Yeah you might want to stay off HMT while you're there. That's an insta-ban.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

This place sounds like the anit-college. No drinking, -------, partying, or generally getting in ----. ---- that place.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

What you can do is bicycle/ride minibike/cab to nearby towns to get laid and get trashed, then drag yourself back to campus.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

lol, my apartment is directly across the road from a bar :6

I could go over there, get drunk, pass out on the sidewalk, wake up sober and walk back to my apartment and get in no trouble from the school :y haha

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

You got it made now. Swiss chicks and German beer. What's the worst that could happen, deportation?

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

An eternity of hell and damnation.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

Meh. The juice is worth the squeeze.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

Sadly I mean Geneva as in Geneva College, in PA. Not Geneva in Europe. That'd kick ass, but money wise isn't an option. So now I have an option of American chicks and American beer at the college. haha

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

Oh boo I feel like a loser now...

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

It sounds like the whole sex thing is out.... you can always use your tears as lube to jerk off (secretly, of course because you'd get expelled if they found out you touch yourself).

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

Ha ha.Dude that place sounds mad gay.WTF are you taking a degree in godliness :l

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

Technically, you can ---- some girl who you're married to with the dorm room door wide open O0

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

dude, Geneva is like a half hour from PSB, why not just go there? theres less gay rules.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

Make sure you role up in your yellow beetle blasting "Footloose".

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

It's kind of freaking me out about going.

BTW, I asked about having a major in religious studies, they don't offer it. Nor do they offer any religious studies other than Christian based. I have to take 9 credits of classes under the category of "Bible" before I graduate too, btw.

Majoring in psychology, if I don't like it this semester I'll just go to one of the 6 or so universities around here. I want degrees in psychology AND theology/religious studies so I am going to have to go to another school at some point.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

no offense or anything but why even go? hardcore religious parents or someting? it seems like a waste if you have to change schools and your really missing out on half the college education worth having.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

for real...being a christian myself, i dont even agree with those regulations. IIRC we were given free choice, and as adults its your ass for what ever you decide to do-maraly, ppl cant / shouldnt choose for you/live your life for you. ---- that.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

Traditional psychology, or some bible-thumping bullshit? Honest question here... I bet you'll find God's name throughout your studies :l religion + mental science = ftl

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

Sounds like a cult. Why the hell would you try to do anything in life living under such bullshit rules? I can see you trying to get a job and the employer laughing at your gay ass. "haha, he's one of those religious quacks."

Go to a regular school, live your damn life, and when you need get into the gates, bring a fucken bulldozer with you.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

So going to college is why for the "That 70's show furniture" College Apartment Gotcha ^-^ I'm now saying I'M SORRY thought it was your parents house :l

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

I never knew there was Bible based psychology? lol I know theres Christian psychologists out there but I'm just majoring in regular psychology. I know I'm going to, they say at the school they try to integrate a lot of the classes in with Christianity... I figure science classes should be easy. Why do the cells of the common tulip have a cell membrane? Because God made it that way. I figure I could get by in the class by answering that way most of the time lol :P

As I said before though I'm giving it one semester. If it's too restricting it's a toss up between penn state & slippery rock u.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

Dude, I went to a 'Catholic' college at one point. And the rules they have, and the rules they actually enforce can be worlds apart. Best bet is to talk to some people that actually go there and see what you're getting yourself into, it may not be too bad.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

just know that the roman catholic church withheld books from the bible. apparently they only wanted us to see a certain perspective of events that are alleged to have happened.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

But that was Duquesne, and I've seen how they treat their policies compared to Geneva. The only thing I heard about Duquesne was that they would not allow a gay club to be made, and that was the extent of "adhering to the rules" as far as I know. We'll see though.

Re: Geneva = Fail
 

---- no abortions!
