Letu Student Handbook Quiz - Quiz

Testing the knowledge of the LeTourneau University student handbook, this quiz will include fill-in-the-blank, trule/false, multiple choice, and short answer questions.


Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Activities such as smoking and drinking alcohol are only prohibited on-campus; students may participate in these activities while off-campus.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The prohibition of smoking and drinking exists on- or off-campus. The only distinction we make is if the student is under the direct authority of their parents. As an institution, we do not usurp the authority of parents, though we would certainly hope that parents would understand and support our intentions behind these guidelines.

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    Student life expectations at LeTourneau University are based on two basic principles that will support the academic, practical, and spiritual commitment of the institution: Biblical standards and _________ standards.

    Correct Answer
    community
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "community." This is because LeTourneau University believes in fostering a sense of community among its students, faculty, and staff. By emphasizing community standards, the institution aims to create an environment that promotes collaboration, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to the values and goals of the university. These community standards help to shape the overall student life experience at LeTourneau University, ensuring that students not only excel academically but also develop important social and interpersonal skills that will serve them well in their future endeavors.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Check all the items that would be included in the prohibition against gambling:

    • A.

      Playing poker with chips

    • B.

      Playing poker with coins

    • C.

      Having a floor March Madness bracket that you pay to enter

    • D.

      Buying or offering a raffle ticket for money

    • E.

      Providing prizes for a floor bingo game that anyone can play

    Correct Answer(s)
    B. Playing poker with coins
    C. Having a floor March Madness bracket that you pay to enter
    D. Buying or offering a raffle ticket for money
    Explanation
    The concept to remember is that we consider it gambling if you pay money for the opportunity to win more money or a prize of some value. So offering 'door prize tickets' to anyone that is at an event is just fine; charging money for a raffle ticket is not permitted. Playing poker with chips is acceptable, but using money or exchanging money for the chips is not allowed.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Extended orientation events are not considered "hazing" as long as the new student desires to participate in the activity.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The law states "the express or implied consent of the victim will not be a defense," most likely because one can never be certain how much the student *truly* wants to participate and how much of it is about feeling accepted. That is why we discuss community building events that students can freely choose to join.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Visitation hours (or "open dorms") on Thursday through Saturday end at what time?

    • A.

      9 pm

    • B.

      10 pm

    • C.

      11 pm

    • D.

      Whenever security/UPD comes by to lock the doors

    Correct Answer
    C. 11 pm
    Explanation
    Visitation hours are the same Thursday through Saturday: 6-11 pm. Visitation hours on Sunday are different: 5-9 pm. Visitation hours for the Village Apartments and Societies are everyday from noon to 11pm.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Dancing is permitted under the following circumstances:

    • A.

      Worship

    • B.

      Educational events

    • C.

      On-campus with RA/RD chaperones

    • D.

      Off-campus at a non-school-related event

    • E.

      Choreographed public performances

    • F.

      Fall Fest Banquet at Pinecrest Country Club

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Worship
    B. Educational events
    D. Off-campus at a non-school-related event
    E. Choreographed public performances
    Explanation
    Social dancing is not permitted on-campus or at school-related events.. Other forms of dancing - whether related to worship, an educational or cultural event, or a public performance - are acceptable. This guideline has not changed in several years; we have recently reminded student leaders to acknowledge this policy while it is in effect.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    Students charged with a misdemeanor or felony are required to notify the Dean of Students within ____ days.

    Correct Answer(s)
    5
    five
    Explanation
    If residents are arrested or charged with breaking a law of the land, please make sure you notify your RD immediately.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    Unauthorized use of an individual's identification, password, or MAC address is considered a disciplinable offense.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Unauthorized use of an individual's identification, password, or MAC address is considered a disciplinable offense because it violates the privacy and security of the individual. By using someone else's identification or password without their consent, an individual can gain unauthorized access to their personal information or resources, potentially causing harm or misuse. Similarly, using someone else's MAC address can lead to unauthorized network access or impersonation, which can have serious consequences. Therefore, it is important to respect and protect the privacy and security of others by not engaging in such unauthorized activities.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Regarding dating and social life, behavior in a public place between couples should be such that the couple always appears ____________, rather than reclusive.

    Correct Answer
    approachable
    Explanation
    The handbook goes on to say, "Sitting or lying in each other’s laps, and prolonged hugs or kisses are examples of unacceptable behavior. If a couple’s public behavior is considered inappropriate, a faculty or staff member will address the behavior accordingly." Don't forget, in this instance, an RA is a staff member and you have the opportunity/responsibility to say something.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Footwear must be worn in all non-residential campus buildings, with certain exceptions applicable to the Solheim Center.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement indicates that it is mandatory to wear footwear in all non-residential campus buildings, except for the Solheim Center which has certain exceptions. Therefore, the correct answer is True, as it aligns with the information provided in the statement.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    Describe the purpose and intent of the "Personal Growth Initiative."

  • 12. 

    Problems with Chapel attendance records (including counting students absent when they were present or vice versa) must be resolved with the Chaplain's Office within _____________ of the Chapel service in question.

    • A.

      1 week

    • B.

      2 weeks

    • C.

      The semester

    • D.

      2 days

    Correct Answer
    B. 2 weeks
    Explanation
    With Chapel attendance viewable online within the same day as Chapel, students need to challenge the official record within a relatively short window of time. The end of the semester--once you realize that you are deficient--is not the time to contest a Chapel from the beginning of the semester.

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    What is the speed limit on-campus?  (Check all that apply.)

    • A.

      10 mph

    • B.

      15 mph

    • C.

      20 mph

    • D.

      25 mph

    Correct Answer(s)
    B. 15 mph
    C. 20 mph
    Explanation
    Most areas of campus have a 20 mph speed limit; the exception is Harris Drive (along married student housing) which has a 15 mph speed limit.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    Only UL-rated extension cords are allowed in residence hall rooms.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    No extension cords are allowed in the rooms. UL-rated power strips are acceptable but must be plugged directly into an outlet.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    If a ResLife staff member has to use his/her master key to gain entrance to a resident's room because the resident is not present, the staff member is required to notify the resident of the entry.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Residents must be notified of any entries to their rooms while they are not present (i.e. room inspections, etc.). It is also advisable for TWO staff members to be present for any such entries. Just because you have a master key, doesn't mean that you need to use it. Overall, we need to have great respect for students' privacy and keying into student's rooms should be used with great caution. If an RA suspects reason to search a student's room, the RA should contact the RD. An RA should NEVER search a student's room alone.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    What are quiet hours for all living areas?

    • A.

      12 am - 7 am

    • B.

      1 am - 8 am

    • C.

      11 pm - 9 am

    • D.

      11 pm - 8 am

    Correct Answer
    C. 11 pm - 9 am
    Explanation
    Quiet hours for all living areas are typically designated during the time when most people are sleeping, in order to minimize noise disturbances. The answer "11 pm - 9 am" encompasses a longer duration during which noise should be kept to a minimum, compared to the other options provided. This timeframe ensures that people have ample time to rest and sleep without being disturbed by loud noises.

    Rate this question:

  • 17. 

    All residential parking lots are zoned 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, meaning that only Village Apartment residents can parking in Village Apartment parking spots at all times.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    Parking zone restrictions are in effect Monday through Friday from 7am to 5pm. Restrictions are not in effect on designated holidays. The Tyler East, Trinity, and Quad parking lots are zoned 24 hours, seven days a week. Other residential lots fall into the 7am-5pm restriction category.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    All posted announcements must be approved by the Office of Student Affairs before posting in any campus facility, including residence halls.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The Office of Student Affairs (OSA) must approve all announcements posted on the publicity bulletin boards in Heath-Hardwick Hall, Longview Hall, Glaske Hall, Belcher Center, and MSC. Signs in other buildings may be posted on interior brick walls only, and still need to be approved by OSA.

    Postings in residence halls do NOT need to be approved by OSA, but DO need to be approved by the RD of that living area.

      Mail Center

    • D.

      Business Office

    Correct Answer
    A. Student Affairs
    Explanation
    The "Lost and Found" is located in the Student Affairs office. This is where students can go to inquire about lost items and potentially retrieve them. The Student Affairs office is responsible for providing support services and resources to students, so it makes sense that the Lost and Found would be located there.

    Rate this question:

  • 23. 

    There are certain copyright laws that govern the use of rented or purchased video-recorded materials, limiting the use of these materials to personal and/or home settings. These laws are ambiguous as to whether a residence hall or its lounges qualify as a “home setting,” so it is important that caution and restraint are exercised in using rented or purchased video-recorded materials on campus. Therefore, campus residents must abide by the following guidelines concerning a video that is not purchased through a licensing agency and is categorized as “home use only”: (check all that apply)

    • A.

      Printed materials must not be used to advertise the video showing and it may not be a fundraiser

  • 24. 

    What is the full emergency number for University Police?  (just numbers; no dashes, spaces, or symbols)

    Correct Answer(s)
    9032334444
    Explanation
    Please store this number in your cell phones, along with your RD's cell phone number, for emergencies. Just saying "4444" only helps if you're using a campus phone. It's important to remember that the area code for most of Longview is 903 and the OFFICE prefix is 233- (while the residential prefix is 220-).

    Rate this question:

    A _________ curb or stripe on the pavement adjacent to the curb indicates no parking at any time.

    Correct Answer

  • 28. 

    What does FERPA, the federal law that protects students' school records, stand for?

    Correct Answer
    Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act
    Explanation
    Generally, schools must have written permission from the parent or eligible student in order to release any information from a student’s education record other than what is considered "directory" information; however, FERPA allows schools to disclose those records, without consent, in certain situations.

    Schools may disclose, without consent, “directory” information such as a student’s name, address, telephone number, date and place of birth, honors and awards, and dates of attendance; however, schools must tell parents and eligible students about directory information and allow parents and eligible students a reasonable amount of time to request that the school not disclose directory information about them.

The goal is not to have one club ask for $250 and preclude the University as a whole from asking for a donation of greater value.
