Housing Policies
CEBA does not operate a dormitory or other
housing facility, but will assist students in locating adequate
housing near the campus. Some students find housing in a local resi-dence
hotel; others share an apartment, or rent a room from members of
a local church.
CEBA reserves the right to approve or disapprove housing on a case-by-case basis
if there is concern for your academic or spiritual welfare.
Meals
CEBA does not operate a cafeteria. A student
lounge is provided for students who wish to bring their meals from
home.
Sports
CEBA maintains an intramural sports program
throughout the fall and spring semesters. Basketball, badminton, and
ping pong are available for both men and women.
Clubs
We encourage you to form student-led clubs
around common interests. Faculty and staff
members are available for advice, and to help students access university
resources. Typical
interests include hiking, sports, and reading
and discussing particular books.
Student Government
All registered students are members of the
Student Association. The purpose of the
student government is to promote Christian
fellowship among students and to advance the kingdom
of God and the mission of California Ezra
Bible Academy. Activities of the Association
are supported through a student fee and individual
gifts. The officers of the Association President,
Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer—are
elected annually by the members.
The Student Council consists of three
representatives from each class plus the student body president.
These students serve as a “sounding board”
for the administration
regarding policies that
affect the students. They are also responsible
for planning certain student activities
such as clubs and social events.
Open House
FIRST CLASS OF EACH SEMESTER IS OPEN.
NO SPECIAL CELEBRATON
CEBA students view College-for-a-Day
(C4D) each fall and spring as opportunities
to enjoy and serve prospective students
who visit the campus for this
open house. These visitors
are invited to stay with students in
the Residence Hall or apartments; classrooms
are filled to capacity; the Student
Council and Dean of Students plan special activities to make
guests feel welcome. We encourage you
to welcome these visitors and to pray
with them as they seek God’s
will for their life.
Chapel Ministry
Student-led worship teams are responsible
for planning and leading music and other
creative arts during the chapel services. If you are musically
talented, you may be asked to
share a vocal or instrumental special during
these services. Student-led media teams oversee audio and video
equipment for chapel services
and special events. If you are interested
in serving in one of these areas and would like to receive training,
contact the Dean of Students.
Student Ministry
It isn’t surprising that, at a college
dedicated to training for ministry, many student activities
result from students engaging in ministry.
As a student at CEBA,
you are required to participate
in a ministry, typically through your
local church. (See the Academic Information section of this
catalog for
details.) Student ministry
is much more than a requirement it is
the heartbeat of men and women who are ready to give their
lives to
serving the Lord, His Church,
and the world. While engaging in ministry,
you will also enjoy fellowship and develop
friendships that may last a lifetime.
Academic Computer Lab
Whenever possible, we encourage you
to bring your own computer to CEBA. If you do not
have a computer, or if you are away
from your computer when you need to type a paper or conduct
research, you are welcome to use the
resources
of the Academic Computer Lab. The Lab
offers full Internet access, and word
processing capabilities.
