We hold to a literal interpretation of the Bible (Old and New Testaments), allowing the principles found therein to serve as the foundation of our curriculum and standards. All classroom instruction is presented from a Biblical perspective, and all activities outside of the classroom are designed to promote positive spiritual growth in our student body. Regular chapel services, prayer groups, dorm devotions, church attendance, and ministry participation are all part of this school’s commitment to see our students develop a life-long passion for Jesus Christ in their personal lives and ministries. .................................................

Conduct If students are not willing to submit their personal lives to the discipline of God’s Word or to the standards of conduct set by this institution, their attendance at Bluewater Bible College & Institute would not be advised. This institution reserves the right to refuse admission, to put on disciplinary probation, or to dismiss any student whose personal behavior or attitude, in the judgment of the administration, is not consistent with the Christian ideals or purposes this institution seeks to maintain. Bluewater Bible College & Institute reserves the right to change or add to its policies as determined by its administration. ................................................ Student Council Upon their admission, all students become members of the Study Body Association which elects officers to the Student Body Council. This council includes the positions of president, vice-president, secretary, social committee chairperson, and song leader. This is a leadership council designed to promote fellowship and spirituality in the school. It ensures that the concerns of students are fairly represented before the College’s administration, and coordinates all student activities. ................................................ Dormitory Life The dormitories are maintained to house the students as economically as possible, while providing for them “a home away from home.” Bluewater’s regulations concerning how life is to be lived in the dormitories are designed to positively mold the lives of the students in their personal habits, and in their relationships with other students. Each room is furnished with beds, study tables, and a chest of drawers. Students must bring their own bed linens, pillows, towels, and wash cloths. Metered washing machines are available in town. At present, there are no bcampus accommodations for married students and their spouses. Dormitory and dining hall facilities are available for only one week after completion of the school year. After that week, the cost per room is US$5.00 a day, and the cost per meal is US$3.50. Health Insurance A group insurance plan is available to all students. It offers a limited life insurance policy, and covers any accidents that may occur on campus. Dining All meals are prepared on campus. The cafeteria-styled dining hall has the capacity to serve the entire student body. All on-campus students must eat their meals in the dining hall.

Bluewater Bible College & Institute is concerned with nurturing its students to develop lifelong attitudes that honor Jesus Christ. Our institution strives to accepts those students who are sincere about their commitment to the work of the ministry, and who have given firm evidence of a consistent walk that is worthy of their profession of faith. We believe that standards and rules should not be for control purposes, but for the benefit and protection of the student body. The standards of conduct set by Bluewater are done so with the intent of assisting students to discipline themselves unto godliness by removing anything that will be a detriment to their relationship with God.
As a result, there are certain activities and behaviors that must be regulated our institution. This school is opposed to questionable activities such as gambling, social dancing, nightclub and cinema attendance, and certain practices that weaken the body and mind, such as the sale and use of tobacco (cigarettes, cigars, and chewing tobacco), illegal drugs/narcotics (natural and processed), and alcoholic beverages. Any student found involved in these activities and/or practices will be required to withdraw from school. (A more detailed statement of all rules and regulations regarding the student body is found in the STUDENT HANDBOOK. Students receive their copy of this book when they arrive on campus.)
