1.5 Dating
Dating is defined as being with or talking to a member of the opposite sex other than a brief, casual encounter. This includes sitting with a member of the opposite sex at a meal, in chapel, or in church.
Students may have dating privileges for regular church services, meals, chapel, special meetings, and student activities.
Men should treat their dates with respect and kindness at all times, observing all rules of courtesy.
There will be no physical contact between members of the opposite sex.
Dating couples are not to be in any room, patio, stairway, or hallway without a third person present.
Dating couples are not permitted to walk around campus after dark without a third person present.
Young men may call for their dates 30 minutes before church services begin.
Young men are not to call for their dates at the dormitory before Sunday School.
There are no dating privileges for soul-winning or church ministries.
Dating couples are not to loiter after the church services in the auditorium, college building, academy, or near the dormitories.
Ladies are not permitted to ride in a car with men unless permission has been granted by the Administration.
Couples are not to be together without prior administrative approval on Saturdays before lunch or on Sunday afternoons.
On college-wide activities, dating couples must remain in the presence of a third person at all times.
Students are not allowed to date Temple Baptist Academy students prior to their junior or senior year in high school.
Students who serve in the youth ministry of Temple Baptist Church are not allowed to date teens in that youth group.
Interracial dating must be approved in writing and verbally by the parents of both students.
Dorm students may not date an off-campus student or someone who is not a Crown College student without parental and administrative approval. If approval is given, all dating rules apply.
Dorm students dating off-campus must have a pass signed by the Administration and a chaperone who has been approved by the Dean of Men or Dean of Women.
A chaperone may be a student’s parent, a close family member, a church family, or someone on the staff at Temple Baptist Church, Temple Baptist Academy, or Crown College.
- Any married couple serving as chaperones must have been married at least one year.
Dating couples may not stay in the same home overnight. This rule is in effect throughout the semester, including during any scheduled breaks.
Dating couples are not to be together on campus before 7:45 a.m. except while sitting at breakfast.
Dating couples may not be in an area home together without approved chaperones and a pass signed by the Administration.
Rick Santorum will be speaking here at noon tomorrow.

I mean, really.
