2019-2020 Student Handbook 23 *Health insurance is required for all international students and their dependents for the duration of their studies at Denver Seminary. Documentation that verifies enrollment in a health insurance plan must be provided to the Dean of Students Office. Communication and Marketing to Students Student Life functions as the primary voice to the student body for communicating information about events, activities, resources, and benefits. Students are encouraged to check their Denver Seminary email account regularly, as it is the official medium by which the Seminary communicates. Students are responsible for information delivered to their seminary email, and the IT Helpdesk should be contacted if complications arise. Along with the Seminary's weekly e-newsletter called Campus News, other means of communication to the student body utilized by Student Life include text messages, digital display monitors, bulletin boards in the Student Center and on-campus Apartments, direct emails, and social media. Inquiries for utilizing any of the above methods for communicating to students need to be submitted to Student Life. The Department of Student Life reserves the right to determine which methods of advertising are utilized at any given time, and whether or not a request for advertising will be approved. To determine whether or not advertising is appropriate for the Denver Seminary community, requests are weighed against the Seminary's Foundational Commitments and learning outcomes. Students' interests and affinities are also taken into consideration. Requests will not be approved if they are determined to conflict with any of the above-mentioned standards, are deemed unrelated to students' interests, or fall into the category of personal solicitations or fundraising efforts. Student Leadership Student Leadership Board The Student Leadership Board functions as a bidirectional voice between the student body and Seminary administration with the goal of enhancing the educational environment and overall student experience. Leadership Board members are selected by the Department of Student Life through an application and interview process, and students interested in serving on the Board are encouraged to respond to the call for application made each spring. Community Advisors Intentional efforts are made to foster relationships within the broad demographic of on-campus residents so neighbors can benefit from their shared experience of living on campus. In order to help accomplish this, Community Advisors work under the supervision of the Student Life Coordinator to organize neighboring activities and facilitate relationship-building opportunities for their fellow residents. Community Advisors are selected through an interview process on an as-needed basis. Group Connections Student Interest Groups As a result of mutually working through an academic program, students discover shared affinities beyond the classroom and can initiate groups based on their common interests. Previous and existing groups
