No forms of entertainment should be played out loud. 3. “Lights Out” all lights and devices must be turned off and rooms quiet at 1:00 AM on nights when there is class the next morning. E. Entertainment Media 1. Music, movies, video games, and other apps are permitted under the following conditions: a. Early in the fall semester, students attend Source One, a seminar designed to help evaluate their choices in keeping with the truths of God's Word. Following this seminar, students will create a list of biblical principles relating to a chosen and approved topic and give a copy of them to their Resident Director and Dorm RA. This project counts toward the student’s overall Christian Disciplines grade. b. Students should be willing to allow the Dorm RA, other students, and staff to ask accountability questions about whether or not their music and movies are in line with their biblical principles for entertainment. Please see the Word of Life Standard of Conduct (#5, pp. 6-7) for guidelines on Christian liberty regarding entertainment.
