New Student Registration

In compliance with Kentucky State Legislation KRS 164.9492- An Act Relating to Fire Safety, KCU is informing students living in Dale,
Waters, and Pifer Halls, and Campus Apartments that the living units are not equipped with an automatic fire suppression system. For
those students living in East and West Halls these living units are equipped with an automatic fire suppression system. All of these units
are equipped with smoke detectors and fire alarm systems. The Act also requires the disclosure statement be signed by the student and
a representative of the University. This form will be maintained by the University and be available to the state fire marshal or the local fire
department upon request.

The Federal Government has passed laws to prohibit the illegal downloading of materials over the internet. KCU has been charged with
informing all students of the law and its penalties.
You should understand that if you are guilty of copy right infringement through the downloading of copyrighted materials you will be
subject to the penalties set forth in the guidelines of the U.S. Government.
Following is a summary of civil and criminal penalties for violation of Federal copyright laws:
Copyright infringement is the act of exercising, without permission or legal authority, one of more of the exclusive right
granted to the copyright owner under section 106 of the Copyright Act (Title 17 of the United State Code). These rights
include the right to reproduce or distribute a copyrighted work. In the file sharing context, downloading or uploading
substantial parts of a copyrighted work without the authority constitutes an infringement.
Penalties for copyright infringement include civil and criminal penalties. In general, anyone found liable for civil copyright infringement may be ordered to pay either actual damages or “statutory” damages affixed at not less than $750
and not more than $30,000 per work infringed. For “willful” infringement, a court may award up to $150,000 per work
infringed. A court can, in its discretion, also assess costs and attorneys’ fees. For details, see Title 17, United States Code,
Sections 504, 505. Willful copyright infringement can also result in criminal penalties, including imprisonment of up to
five years and fines of up to $250,000 per offense.

KCU is a Christ-centered, educational community. Communities function best when their members understand and abide by
established standards of lifestyle and conduct, followed not by force of others, but out of each individual’s willingness to take personal responsibility for him or herself, as well as for the well-being of the community (1 Corinthians 10:23-33). Members of the KCU
community accept the Bible as the inspired word of God and the final authority in all matters of faith and life.
As a University, we seek to keep Christ at the center of all our interactions, which will show in the life of our campus employees
and students. Personal conduct should follow Biblical principles in speech, attitudes, and behavior (Colossians 3:12-17).
KCU has the responsibility of maintain an environment conducive to learning and Christ-centered community living. KCU, therefore, reserves the right to discipline any student whose conduct is contrary to its purpose and standards.

CONDUCT GUIDELINES
Specific disciplinary consequences for the following behaviors are explained in the KCU Student Handbook. As
members of the KCU community, students are expected to take personal responsibility for the following areas:
• INTEGRITY - Honesty and respect for all members of the KCU community is required. This includes abstaining
from any form of stealing, cheating, slander, or obscene language.
• SOBRIETY - Under no circumstances is the use, possession, or distribution of illegal drugs permitted. Alcohol
