STUDENT LIFE
INFORMATION
APPEARANCE STANDARD
We realize that in many circles there is much disagreement as to standards of dress. We at Canadian Baptist Bible College, have chosen the highest standards possible so as not to offend (Romans 14; I Corinthians 8). We believe that modesty is not the only issue, but distinction of the sexes as well. We lift up manhood and honor womanhood. Therefore, we require the following:
Men:
​
All men students are required to wear dress shirts and ties to classes, preaching, meals and church services (unless the student is working). When spectators at athletic contests they may dress casually. In areas designated for recreation or work, sweatshirts or T-shirts and jeans, but not shorts, may be worn. Shirttails are to be worn in. Shoes and socks must be worn in public. Belts must be worn with trousers designed for belts. Hair must be neatly cut and combed, off the ears, and off the collar when standing. Sideburns may not extend below the middle of the ear. Beards and mustaches are allowed if they have been part of the individual for at least 5 previous years of year-round wear.
Ladies:
​
It is expected that the wives of men students will observe dress regulations for lady students as well. Ladies are to be tastefully and modestly dressed. A proper skirt is defined as follows: the knee is to be covered while in a sitting position and at all times. Appropriate slips should be worn comparable to the skirt. Dresses may not have slits that extend up past the bottom of the knee. 71 Culottes that look like a skirt and are neatly styled, may be worn for leisure activities. Excessively worldly styles, low-cut necklines and backs, shorts, slacks, tight-fitting apparel and excessive make-up are forbidden.
The Administration reserves the right to have any student change his/her apparel, if deemed inappropriate.
As a Christian institution, the Canadian Baptist Bible College expects its students to live lives that are above reproach and to exemplify Christian usefulness and kindness in their associations with instructors, fellow students and the world. Since the college aims for a definite spiritual emphasis, we believe that Christian people should manifest loyalty to Jesus Christ by living consecrated Christian lives. Therefore the following guidelines are stated:
1. The college does not permit dancing, going to movie theaters, use of tobacco, alcoholic drinks, drugs, gambling, profanity, obscenity and other forms of worldly indulgences.
2. It is the conviction of the college that complaining, destructive criticism and cynical attitudes grieve the Holy Spirit and are destructive to Christian growth and development.
3. The college expects the cooperation of all students in the development of respect for the enforcement of the rules and regulations of the school. Constructive suggestions, which are made to the proper authority, will always be welcomed.
​
4.The cooperation of every student is expected in the development of the respect for and the goodwill of the college throughout the community.

TEXTBOOK & CLASS MATERIAL
DISCLAIMER
Canadian Baptist Bible College requires all students and faculty to use the King James Bible for class work, assignments, homework, preaching, teaching and memorization.
Because the college believes that God has preserved His Word in the King James Bible for the English speaking people, it seeks to use textbooks, coursework and materials written by fundamental Baptists who use the King James Bible as their text and includes references from the King James Bible in their writings. However, this is not always possible because of the shortage of good quality, academic materials.
In institutions of higher learning such as Canadian Baptist Bible College, in the interest of research, reference, and scholarship, it occasionally becomes necessary to use materials written by individuals who may not hold to the standards and interpretation of Scripture nor the philosophical approach to which Canadian Baptist Bible College holds. Even though the college chooses to use these scholarly works, it does not necessarily endorse nor 75 agree with all the content of these books and materials nor does it agree with all the views of the author.
Canadian Baptist Bible College, to the best of its ability, will try to avoid those works that are too radical, too controversial, unreliable or not biblically sound. Canadian Baptist Bible College will constantly strive to seek out and provide the best materials possible that will contribute to the education of the students and their training and preparation to serve the Lord
