EDEN Policies
EDEN Course Materials Policy

All students who enroll for an EDEN course are required to purchase all current course materials supplied by the seminary including tapes, CDs, and any other component required by the syllabus that impacts the pricing of our courses. Students are prohibited from borrowing these items from other students who have taken a course previously. In effect, students who do so are stealing from their professors. Seminary faculty who teach EDEN courses receive part of their remuneration for teaching the course through royalties for course materials distributed to students. Students will not be permitted to enroll in an EDEN course if payment is not received for all current course materials. Students who violate this policy will receive an F for the EDEN course in which they are enrolled and will come under sanctions set forth in the Seminary Honor Code for stealing ("the unauthorized taking of property of another").

 


Course Assignment Dating Policy

Effective immediately, all Erskine Distance Education Network (EDEN) courses must include a timetable for completion of all course requirements. All current EDEN courses must include due dates for each assignment by the end of the 2003-04 academic year or as needed when taken by a student who is having a course paid for by the Veteran's Administration (VA). If you have a student who is having tuition paid for by the VA, you will be notified by our Financial Aid Director, Julie Nelson. All new EDEN courses will not be approved for use unless they contain due dates for each assignment and a final date for completing the course.

When revising or creating an EDEN course to include due dates for course assignments, please be sure to make modifications for Summer term schedules.

When you have completed making due date revisions in your EDEN course syllabus, please forward an electronic copy of it to me ( slowe@erskine.edu ) so that we can have a copy on file and also make the revised version available on the seminary web page. Please be sure your syllabus is in Microsoft Word format.
