A student shall have 24 hours to file a request for an appeal or forfeit that right. A student who has a work schedule that conflicts with chapel on given days should make application for a permanent chapel excuse in the Student Services Office. This must be done on a per-semester basis. Only students with bona fide jobs will be excused. Those who happen to have a light class load on Tuesday and Thursday will not be excused.
Permanent excuses become effective when they are approved.
Students with small children may not be required to attend daily. No full-time student can be excused from chapel every day. Students should understand that, if they are excused for work, the number of unexcused absences allowed will be reduced for the semester. Should they exceed this number, they may forfeit the right to be excused for the rest of the semester and possibly future semesters, as well as being placed on chapel probation. Graduate students are not required to attend chapel.
