Seminary Community Council (SCC) is composed of students and faculty members, a faculty adviser and ex-officio administrators. SCC assists in structuring a community life of Christian sharing and caring. It operates from the understanding that a dynamic community life is vital to the academic process. Since Christian community requires committed individuals, every studentall students, faculty and staff member is are expected to use his or her gifts and influence for the enrichment of community life.

SCC appointsstudent appoints student representatives to Seminary and University committeesseminary faculty meeting and other university committees.  It also takes responsibility to plan social events, lead lunch forums and be alert to student financial needs.

The community gathers for Seminary Chapel twice a weekweekly, on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Student groups often provide leadership for chapel. The experience of worship is central to our community life, and students are encouraged to faithfully support the chapel services.

We also gather with the wider university for special lectures and campus-wide chapels. A university chapel schedule is posted and students are welcome to attend these on days when seminary chapel is not held.Spiritual Life Week gives students, faculty and staff an opportunity to consider their faith journeys together. Each fall special events are planned for the community. Wednesday afternoon classes are cancelled and students are invited to a retreat.

The SCC has developed guidelines for the use of the Seminary Study Room.  You can find those guidelines here: https://moodle.emu.edu/pluginfile.php/558262/mod_resource/content/1/2018%20Study%20Room%20guidelines.pdf
