Because Taylor is a Christian university, homosexual behavior is prohibited in the College's Life Together Covenant. However, acts of discrimination are also discouraged, and a student struggling to overcome any type of sin will be supported and encouraged at Taylor.
Political Activity
Student political stances vary significantly. There are not many political organizations on campus, but political speakers hold seminars on campus, and the student body council election can be a competitive race.
Economic Status
One of the great things about Taylor is that economic diversity does not affect student relationships. Because Taylor is an expensive school, many students come from upper-middle-class families. Students who need scholarships, however, usually get them, and Taylor is concerned about aiding students who have serious financial need.
Most Common Religions
Taylor is an interdenominational Christian liberal arts college. Therefore, a large variety of Christian denominations are represented throughout the student body, whose interwoven beliefs provide a rich background for the College's liberal arts studies.
Minority Clubs on Campus
Racial reconciliation is a hot topic at Taylor. Mu Kappa and Multi-Ethnic Student Association are a couple of clubs that allow students of ethnic minority to interact with others from within and without their own cultures.
Did You Know?
- Taylor hosts its annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day workshop sessions, during which credible scholars lecture on how to facilitate diversity and reconciliation throughout the campus, the community, and the world.
- Taylor's commitment to global engagement doesn't miss its own backyard. Multiple ethnically-oriented organizations reach out to students of ethnic minorities and acclimate them to the Taylor culture.
