Amy Simmons, a senior at Multnomah, shares about her personal stance on contract. As a legal adult and student living off campus Amy states that she sees herself as the type of student that would want to see contract revised. Amy honestly addressed the fact that though she follows contract she can’t say that she loves following it and that it isn’t at some points difficult. However her opinion remains, I chose to go to this school and I chose to be in this community and I see no reason why I can’t abide by the rules that it’s asking me to abide by. I think I learn a lot about authority by listening to those who have been here longer and know a lot more about these things than I do. Amy, like a lot of students at Multnomah, has experienced and seen a lot of healing through her time at Multnomah and she believes that healing comes from Multnomah being a safe place. Amy states that Multnomah remains a safe place because of the standards in place. At the core of this difficult issue is the reality that we live in a community, a community that we chose to enter into, and our actions affect those around us. Dr. Miller states, in reference to her personal stance on the standards, I believe that we need to be wise stewards of ourselves—physically, emotionally, intellectually, etc. I believe the Bible counsels moderation as a plumbline for behaviors, as well as a keen awareness of the impact our personal expressions of freedom have on others.
