Classes at Southern Adventist University are open to registered students only. Information disseminated in the classroom or other places of learning is the primary product that the university sells; hence visitors may not expect to enter such gatherings freely. To attend classes, any visitor must be an official guest of the institution with legitimate business in that classroom, or be present by permission of the instructor.
Classroom visitors have no right to engage in class discussion unless invited by the instructor to do so. Classes are gatherings at which university employees organize learning experiences about prearranged topics as listed in the Catalog, rather than public forums. Registrants who pay tuition can expect their class rights to be protected from intrusion of anyone who has not similarly paid for the course.
Faculty and the institution reserve the right to remove from class legitimate students whose behavior exceeds the bounds of normal academic freedom.
Faculty conducting extension classes from other institutions on the Southern Adventist University campus share the rights set out in this policy.
