CONTACTING YOUR STUDENT
Mailing Information Students will receive their mail at the Bible Institute mailroom. They will be assigned a box number which should appear on all letters and packages. Parcels are best sent United Parcel Service (UPS), which is delivered daily. The address is: STUDENT’S NAME 4200 GLENDALE RD. PMB #1234 (PMB = Private Mailbox, 1234 = student’s campus box number) POTTERSVILLE, NY 12860 During the summer students are assigned to different locations; therefore, mailbox numbers should NOT be used. Please use the Camp name where they will be (i.e. Word of Life Island, Word of Life Ranch, etc). Communication with Parents We encourage students to maintain regular communication with their parents. Under certain conditions, the Student Life Department may ask students to contact their parents. If a student faces a serious discipline situation, the ideal form of communication is when students assume responsibility for themselves as adults by contacting their parents regarding their own personal circumstances whether they are related to academics, health, or discipline. Family Emergencies and Deaths In the event of a death or family emergency, please contact the Dean of Men or Dean of Women (contact information in the Staff Directory, p.18). They will arrange to notify the student involved and have them make the appropriate phone calls from the privacy of their homes or offices. It has been our experience that this is easier on the student rather than receiving the news via a phone call in the dorm. Please note that some of these are the private home numbers of our deans, so limiting your calls to emergencies only will be appreciated. During office hours they can be reached at the Bible Institute office.
