New Student Orientation

Mission StatementNew Student Orientation facilitates a successful college transition by introducing new students and

families to Pepperdine’s engaging campus community, academic environment, Christian mission,

and support resources in a welcoming atmosphere conducive to building new relationships.

Learning OutcomesA student who participates in New Student Orientation should be able to:

1. Cultivate a sense of community

2. Make informed decisions about academic choices

3. Locate and utilize campus services and resources

4. Discover opportunities available outside the classroom

5. Understand the nature and importance of Pepperdine’s Christian faith and heritage

6. Develop a growing love and pride for Pepperdine

7. Feel reassured about the decision to attend Pepperdine for his or her college education

As a Christian University, Pepperdine Affirms:

That God is

That God is revealed uniquely in Christ

That the educational process may not, with impunity, be divorced from the divine process

That the student, as a person of infinite dignity,

is the heart of the educational enterprise

That the quality of student life is a valid concern of the University

That truth, having nothing to fear from investigation,

should be pursued relentlessly in every discipline

That spiritual commitment, tolerating no excuse for mediocrity,

demands the highest standards of academic excellence

That freedom, whether spiritual, intellectual, or economic, is indivisible

That knowledge calls, ultimately, for a life of service.

When They Say… What Do They Mean?

AC: Appleby Center is a building where many classes are held, near the Weisman Museum of Art. This building has two floors. When you are on the second floor, you are in Appleby Center (AC). When you go to the downstairs floor of this building, you will be in Rockwell Academic Center (RAC), which can also be accessed between Elkins and Keck Science Center.

BPC: Black Family Plaza Classrooms, named after Joyce and Stanley Black, is the building which is adjacent to Elkins Auditorium. It is home to many academic classes. You can also find the Campus Ministry office located here.

Brock House: This is where the president of Pepperdine University and his family live. The house is on the top of the hill where you can see the big American flag. Our University president is Andrew Benton and his wife’s name is Debby.

CAC: Cultural Arts Center, the classroom building between the Weisman Museum and Smothers Theatre. It is also the building you can walk through to get to main campus from Dorm Road (aka “Lower Residence Road”).

The Caf: The short name for the Waves Cafe, located on the bottom level of the Tyler Campus Center (TCC) and serving great food every day. There are a lot of other great food options such as: La Brea Bakery, Jamba Juice, and Nature’s Edge.

CCB: Center for Communication and Business, which can be found at the top of the hill above the HAWC and Upper Residence Road. It includes classrooms and offices and offers food services for Pepperdine’s two largest majors, Communication and Business. You can walk up Seaver Drive toward the School of Law, take the stairs by Towers and Peppers Hall, or use the Waves Shuttle that stops right outside the front doors of the building.

Convo: The Convocation Series consists of a variety of chapel programs each dedicated to strengthening faith, character, and Christian living. These range from chapel to one-on-one spiritual mentoring, small groups and more. Through these programs, you will have an opportunity to engage different perspectives on personal and contemporary issues, as well as learn more about how to make a difference in the world.

Elkins Auditorium: Elkins will be the home of most of your larger lecture classes. It is also a popular place to watch movies hosted by the Student Programming Board. It is located in the heart of Mullin Town Square adjacent to Joslyn Plaza.

Fireside Room: Multipurpose room located in the corner of the cafeteria by La Brea Bakery.

Firestone Fieldhouse: The place where some of the Waves compete and where Wednesday morning Chapel is held. The weight room is located downstairs.

HAC: Huntsinger Academic Complex includes Payson Library and the Pendleton Learning Center.

The HAWC: Opened in 1995, this building was named after Dr. Howard A. White, the fifth president of Pepperdine, hence the initials HAWC (C is for Center). It is a popular student hangout, open 24 hours during the regular school year for you to play pool, buy food, or watch TV. This building houses Student Activities, Campus Recreation, and Intercultural Affairs. Also, the “HAWC stairs” (the set of stairs just outside the HAWC that go up to Seaver Drive) are a convenient location to meet friends when you live in the halls closer to main campus.

KSC: The Keck Science Center is the building that is an annex to the RAC and AC and includes classrooms, conference rooms, and laboratory teaching areas.

Waves Lingo

12

MB: Music Building, which is located next to Smother’s Theatre, is home to our music department. You can be sure to find students singing or playing instruments whether that be in the hallways or the many practice rooms.

OneStop: OneStop is an office dedicated to serving you and any needs you may have. You can get information about your financial aid, registration, student account, etc., as well as purchase discounted movie and amusement park tickets. OneStop is located on the 2nd floor of the TAC (the floor on ground level).

PLC: You’ll probably have classes in the Pendleton Learning Center. To find it: there is a door just to the left of the library entrance that will take you there. Another entrance is by the amphitheatre next to the Christopher Columbus statue.

RA: Resident Advisor. Your RA is an all around “go-to person” if you ever need help with anything related to campus living. Be sure to get to know your RA and utilize him or her as an important resource.

RAC: Rockwell Academic Center is the bottom floor to Appleby Center (AC). The Natural Science Division is housed here along with classrooms and science labs.

Rho: Pronounced “row,” this is the big parking lot just past the intersection of Dorm Road and Upper Residence Road at the far end of campus. It is where you checked in for New Student Orientation and is the most common place for students to park their cars on campus.

The Rock: Student groups are welcome to paint the Rock, which is located down in Adamson Plaza just outside of the bookstore. Students paint the Rock to advertise their organization, group, or an event, or just to show Pepperdine pride.

SAC: The Seaver Academic Complex is the set of buildings just up the hill from the CCB where the International Studies and Languages Division holds its classes. There is a shuttle stop just outside the building which services both the SAC and the CCB.

Sandbar: On the top level of the Tyler Campus Center (TCC), the Sandbar houses student mailboxes, computers, and Jamba Juice.

Seaver College: This is Pepperdine’s college of letters, arts, and sciences. It is one of five colleges that make up Pepperdine University. The other colleges are: the School of Law, the Graziadio School of Business Management (GSBM), the Graduate School of Education and Psychology (GSEP), and the School of Public Policy (SPP).

SLA: Spiritual Life Advisor. Your SLA is a good spiritual resource if you ever need to just chat about life, struggles, or need someone to pray with. Conversations with the SLA are confidential.

Student Activities: This office is located in the Howard A. White Center. It is home to all student activities, events, and organizations. The advisors and the student office for Student Government, Student Clubs and Organizations, and the Student Programming Board can be found here, along with staff involved with New Student Orientation, Waves Weekend, Songfest, and Dance in Flight.

TAC: Thornton Administrative Center is the building next to the library and the first building you see when you arrive on Seaver Drive. It houses many of the administrative offices at Pepperdine (Office of the President, the Office of Admission, the Office of Financial Assistance, registrar, student accounts, etc.). Also note that “OneStop” is located on the 2nd floor.

TCC: Tyler Campus Center, the building that houses many of the offices and services you will visit the most. The TCC is home to the Waves Cafe (the “Caf”), the Sandbar, the mailroom, the Volunteer Center, the Career Center, Student Employment, Disability Services, International Programs, Dean of Students, and the Counseling Center.

diverse student interests and leadership opportunities in several categories including academic, cultural/ethnic, political, professional, student-led ministry, athletic, and special interest groups. Each semester ICC allocates

funding to its member organizations to subsidize a portion of their financial needs in creating a diverse and lively campus atmosphere. Students are highly encouraged to start a new club if they have an interest that is not currently

represented within the existing ICC student organizations.

Students can now customize and track how they get involved on campus using the Pepperdine CollegiateLink system a.k.a. The Peppervine. Create an account and search through the organizations on campus, view current campus events, and create your own club. Use your Pepperdine credentials and login at vine.pepperdine.edu.

Campus MinistryDrawing Students Closer to the Cross

Campus Ministry exists to help the students at Pepperdine “taste and see that the Lord is good” (Psalm 34:8). Our ministry is committed to being an intricate part of the spiritual awakening and revival of the next generation.

We are not interested in simply believing in God, but instead are committed to radically changing our lives and the world through the love of Father, the work of Christ, and the power of the Spirit.

We welcome people from all walks of life, regardless of personal background, religious affiliation, or denominational upbringing, to come and join us as we embark on this incredible journey.

Worship � Join us every week for numerous student-led worship gatherings including The Well on Thursday nights

(Amphitheater) and Sunday Night Chapel (Stauffer Chapel). � Come and be a part of the University Church of Christ on Sunday mornings as we meet in Elkins Auditorium

to worship with and strengthen the community of faith in Malibu.

Community � Connect on a close, personal level with other students through one of “House Groups”–small gatherings of

10-12 students that meet weekly in the home of a resident member to share a meal, their lives, and the Word. � Join us for our annual fall and spring retreats as we spend a weekend off campus with hundreds of other

students to strengthen our connection to one another and to God . � Hang out and join us for regular events including broomball, movie nights, beach trips, BBQs, and much more.

Service � Reach out to others as we take mission trips to Mexico, meet the needs of the less fortunate in the Los Angeles

area, and tangibly help those on this campus who are in need. � Be encouraged and empowered to serve others, share your faith, organize ministry events, pray boldly for

those in need, and put your faith to work.

Stop by the Campus Ministry office anytime to meet our campus ministers, interns, and office staff. We pray that through your involvement in Campus Ministry you will be nurtured,

challenged, and transformed as you find yourself drawn closer to the cross.

Department of Public Safety

2015–2016 Parking InformationWe are fortunate to have sufficient parking throughout the Malibu campus; however, the key to successful parking is allocating adequate time to locate available parking and arrive at your destination. To assist you, the campus shuttle services begin at 7:40 am each weekday with over 20 stops throughout campus running

approximately every 10 minutes. There are also hourly runs to Malibu, Monday through Saturday each week.

Students are responsible for knowing all the traffic and parking regulations available on the Public Safety website, highlights include:

� The California Vehicle Code is enforced on campus.

� Access along John Tyler Drive is restricted each night from 10:30 pm–6:30 am

� Vehicles must display a valid parking permit for the current academic year to park on campus. Permits must be renewed annually at pepperdine.thepermitstore.com

� Most new students are assigned the “Resident” or “R” permit and may park anywhere during the hours of 7am–5pm except: any gated lot, Seaver Drive, Banowsky Boulevard, and Presidents Drive because these areas are reserved for employees and/or commuter students. Only students displaying a Towers or Page permit may park in that residence hall’s designated lot.

� Parking citations must be paid or will be forwarded to the student’s account.

� Multiple violations may result in disciplinary action that may include on-campus parking or driving restrictions.

Malibu Campus Lost and Found Procedures � Found items of high value or containing information risking the owner of identity theft (e.g., driver’s license, checkbook, laptop, PDAs, backpacks, iPads), should be turned into Public Safety, documented, and will be held for 30 days.

� The following items will not typically be kept at Public Safety for any length of time: dishes, food, loose papers, books, notebooks, and loose clothing items.

� Any other found item should be turned into an employee representative near the location where the item was found (e.g., libraries, pool, dining hall).
