Because this is true, students are expected to give evidence of conduct consistent with such a profession. The disciplined life is consistent with the Biblical model for a Christian. By enrolling in the college each student is entering into an agreement with the college to be responsible for certain details of activity and conduct. This agreement is explained in a "Sta tement of Rights and Responsibilities" which every prospective student receives as a part of the admissions process. Students whose attitudes prove to be uncooperative are asked to withdraw from the college. STUDENT HEALTH SERVICES Biola College offers a Health Service for all registered students. This service is under the direction of an on-campus physician with a scheduled sick call every morning and every afternoon, Monday through Friday.

These records must be complete and on file with the college physician.
