Campus Life Life Together Covenant Taylor’s Life Together Covenant is a document that provides structure for living in such a community. The purpose of this covenant is to identify the expectations for participation that will assist us in living together and in meeting our institutional objectives. This document asks each member, faculty, staff, and student alike, to put the needs of the community ahead of personal desires. The desire is for all individuals in the community to be edified, bear with one another, speak truth in love, and give attention to reconciliation, restoration, and restitution. The Life Together Covenant can be read at www.taylor.edu/about/LTC/
activities in the arts Taylor University is committed to an understanding of the arts that connects Christian worship and prayer with the aesthetic experience. One of the goals of Taylor’s foundational core is to create an enhanced understanding of the arts through the development of aesthetic literacy. In order to facilitate this goal, a number of opportunities to participate in meaningful artistic experiences are provided. An artist series features nationally known performers. A series of art exhibits by professional artists, as well as the Taylor art faculty and art students, are displayed throughout the year in the Metcalf Gallery. The theatre department provides three or four dramatic productions each year in the Mitchell Theatre. The various music ensembles, including the Taylor Ringers, Taylor Sounds, Taylor Chorale, Opera Theatre, Adoration Chorus, Bell Choir, Symphony Orchestra, Wind Ensemble, Flute Choir, Jazz Combo, and Jazz Band provide a full slate of concerts. These concerts are supplemented by a full calendar of faculty and student recitals. department contacts: Art Kim Hapner 765-998-5322 kmhapner@taylor.edu
