As a Christian institution, JBU's influence has a clear connection and reliance on a strong “campus community.” Clear expectations help the members of the community live in unity. Therefore, while students are not required to profess personal Christian faith, making the choice to attend JBU means having a sympathetic appreciation for our guiding principles and choosing to abide by our community expectations.
The university is committed to the preservation of human dignity and is particularly concerned about the possibility of harassment, whether sexual, racial, ethnic or any other type. This applies to all members of the JBU community including but not limited to students, employees, and third parties. Harassment in any form - verbal, physical, or visual - is strictly prohibited, against university policy and will result in immediate disciplinary action. It is a violation of state and local law and university regulations to commit a sexual assault (including rape).
The Student Handbook includes a description and history of JBU, lists student services available, describes lifestyle expectations and includes a directory to all campus offices.
Equip yourself for a successful career and a life of purpose.
