Campus Colloquy

The weekly PUC Campus Colloquy takes place Thursdays at 10 a.m. in the church sanctuary. Campus Colloquy is designed to be a time when the entire campus community comes together. The idea is to explore together from a Christian perspective new horizons in art, music, intellect, religion, spirituality, service opportunities, cultures, and even our own community here at PUC. We hope to learn, to celebrate, to exchange new ideas, and to worship together.

Campus Colloquy Syllabus
Syllabus for Campus Colloquy GRNL 100.

Academic Credit for Colloquy

All students registered for seven or more credits are automatically registered for the course GNRL 100, worth 0.1 units each quarter. Attending at least six out of ten meetings each quarter earns a grade of S; failure to attend six meetings results in an F grade. These grades appear on the college transcript and are counted in the GPA. Card swipers will swipe your card as you enter and as you exit. Colloquy attendance records are posted on Lantern. These records may be viewed at http://lantern.puc.edu.

Attendance Credit for Colloquy

Colloquy attendance as a GNRL 100 requirement is separate from the Religious and Community Service Attendance (a.k.a. "worship credits"). However, once you have attended your required six colloquies, two Religious and Community Service Attendance credits are available for each additional colloquy you attend.

Colloquy Attendance/Tardy Policy

Those students who swipe in after 10:05 or do not swipe out following the program (or leave early) will not receive credit for attending that given Colloquy.

Colloquy Schedule Conflicts

Students only have to attend any six colloquies per quarter to receive credit for the course. If you anticipate unusual persistent schedule conflicts throughout the quarter, proration forms are available online and at Student Services. Please note that students requesting proration on the basis of work conflicts must submit a letter from their employer indicating the student's weekly work hours.

Colloquy Exemptions

Those who are registered for six or fewer credits, parents with children at home, those in the BSN or DCP programs, those completing their student teaching, and those with a baccalaureate degree are exempt from Colloquy attendance requirements. If you are in one of these categories, be sure to contact Student Services at 7362 to be placed on the exemption list.

Colloquy Information

For more information on Colloquy attendance requirements, contact Student Services at 7362 or the teacher of record, Nancy Lecourt (ext. 6234; nlecourt@puc.edu).

The Colloquy Civility Clause

To be "civil" means to refrain from rudeness. To this end, please come on time, put away cell phones, textbooks, laptops, iPods, or whatever might distract you or others from the program at hand. Carrying on extended conversations during the program is distracting to others and disrespectful to the speaker. Please choose to be civil, not rude, during our time together in Colloquy.
