The university maintains an exceptionally strong commitment to instill community-building values and skills in its students. Students and staff also fully support blood drives and develop relationships with low income students by hosting an annual day at LCU, designed to encourage them to become teachers. In addition, all social clubs have service projects to help those in need. The university prohibits illegal drug and tobacco use in any form. Rather than simply prohibit these items, however, LCU encourages students to adhere to a lifestyle pattern that includes the highest moral, spiritual, physical, and social values.
Students quickly learn appropriate conduct through examples of faculty, staff, and student leaders.
Most importantly, the focus on Bible study teaches students that drug use is inconsistent with a life of Christian service and healthful citizenship. LCU stresses this policy in initial orientation meetings and University Studies classes that all freshmen must attend. Conducts a critical assessment of character-building projects and activities During 1996, LCU's president oversaw a total review of all academic and administrative programs. The purpose was to ensure that the university was organized in the most efficient manner and that students were afforded the best learning and character-building environment possible. The review included spiritual emphasis, student support, technology, organizational structure, and the required modifications needed to increase efficiency.
