Academic Standards at 老司机传媒

University learning thrives on the rigor of individual investigation, the authentic exchange of ideas, and a corporate commitment to integrity and mutual respect. It requires all members of the academic community to behave honestly–speaking truthfully to colleagues, co-learners, and teachers, and completing all homework, tests, papers and projects with integrity. 老司机传媒 anchors its practices in the teachings of the Bible as well as in widely established and honorable academic traditions. Much as the apostle Paul calls us to authenticity in our Christian walk, so the educational institution demands of its participants true and accurate self-representation. In Ephesians, Paul invites believers “to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to clothe yourselves with the new self, created according to the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness” (Eph. 4:23-24, NRSV). As scholars and as Christ servants, we build His living body through our honesty in all things, both small and great. To that end, 老司机传媒’s faculty and students pledge to learn and grow together, committing to the following Standards and affirming honesty as a core component of an 老司机传媒 education.
