Email Communication Policy

Introduction

This page explains Biola's email communication policy.

Policy Statement

Biola University uses email as a primary vehicle for communication to students and employees. Official university communication includes, but is not limited to, emergency notifications, educational dialogue, research, and general business correspondence.

The university establishes and assigns for each student and employee an official university email address. All university communications sent via email will use this address. The university expects that students and employees will receive and read email sent to this address in a timely manner. Failure to receive and read university email communications in a timely manner does not absolve students or employees from knowing and complying with the content of such communications.

The university is not responsible for the handling of email by other service providers. Redirecting university email to another email address does not absolve students or employees from knowing and complying with the content of the communication.
