Who We Are
Our History
More than a half-century ago, the leaders of Columbia International University (CIU) had a vision for a model schoola center of influence in the Christian school movementthat would instill thorough Christian discipleship, high academic standards, and a call to world evangelization. This vision, coupled with faith and courage, gave Our Mission birth to Ben Lippen School (BLS) in 1940. The name Ben Lippen, a Ben Lippen School seeks Scottish phrase meaning Mountain of Trust, captures the essence to glorify God by assisting upon which Ben Lippen was founded. Before becoming a Christian school, Ben Lippen was a summer conference center operated by CIU (formerly Columbia Bible College), providing respite from the summer heat of Columbia, South Carolina. The cool mountain air of western North Carolina served as a beautiful and restful setting for those serving in fulltime and lay ministry to receive encouragement and training.
the family and church in equipping students spiritually, academically, and socially under the Lordship of Jesus Christ.
Robert C. McQuilkin, CIUs first president, realized that Ben Lippen was only being used three months out of the year and that it could meet another needa need for quality Christian education for the children of missionaries. In 1940 Ben Lippen opened its doors to high school boys.
The elementary program was launched in 1990 when Ben Lippen Elementary School opened in the facilities of St. Andrews Presbyterian Church in Irmo, South Carolina. In 1996, a second elementary school, Ben Lippen Northeast, was opened using space at Spears Creek Baptist Church in Elgin, South Carolina. Currently, Ben Lippen Elementary School has two locations owned by the schoolthe Monticello Road Campus and the St. Andrews Road Campus. Today Ben Lippen is comprised of nearly 800 students. Families served by Ben Lippen represent over 115 local churches and 15 foreign countries. Ben Lippen continues its tradition to serve as a model of academic distinction. Graduates are accepted to some of the finest colleges and universities . The result is generation after generation of Ben Lippen alumni who build their lives on biblical values and contribute to society as doctors, lawyers, missionaries, pastors, business leaders, military personnel, husbands and wives, and dads and moms.
Our Vision A Ben Lippen School graduate influences the world by demonstrating lifelong commitment to loving and obeying God, pursuing biblical truth, and humbly serving others.
In 1952 when Robertson McQuilkin, son of Robert C. McQuilkin and 1944 Ben Lippen graduate, was named Ben Lippens headmaster, the school became coeducational. It flourished as a secondary school. In December of 1980, a fire destroyed Ben Lippens primary building. Years of planning to rebuild did not come to fruition. In 1988, Ben Lippen moved to new facilities adjoining the CIU campus in Columbia. Over 200 boarding and day students in grades seven through 12 enrolled at the new campus.

Our Logos
Ben Lippen School has a rich heritage which is captured in the schools Seal .
Green symbolizes life and the spiritual, academic, and social growth which we aspire for every student. Ben Lippen is a Scottish phrase meaning Mountain of Trust.
A reminder that we serve the King of Kings.
The Asheville campus was surrounded by trees. Trees also suggest the bearing of fruit which we desire for our graduates. The Columbia campus is also encircled by many trees.
The school originated on top of a mountain in Asheville, NC and now resides at the highest point in Columbia, SC. In fact, the word Monticello (the street on which the campus is located) means little mountain.
Gold symbolizes the glory of God.
This verse describes the life of victory upon which Columbia Bible College (now Columbia International University) and Ben Lippen were founded. Ben Lippen began in 1940 in Asheville, NC. We moved to Columbia, SC in 1988.

In addition to this and other initiatives of the MOTF, raising $200,000 for financial assistance is a key distinctive of our school. Proceeds from two annual fund-raising events, Cedar Creek Classic and TEE UP for Students, and a portion of the proceeds of the Ben Lippen Bazaar are earmarked for the Mountain of Trust Financial Aid Fund.

Additional Resources for Faculty and Staff

Ben Lippen School
Attire Guidelines
As Christian professionals, the faculty and staff of Ben Lippen School recognizes that the way we are perceived by our students, parents and the community is influenced by how we dress and present ourselves. Therefore, our dress code is designed to honor the Lord, support a Christian testimony, represent with excellence the mission of our school, and set a positive example for our students.
Basic Guidelines
To enhance the mission of training Christian scholars at Ben Lippen and project the professionalism we expect of ourselves, the following guidelines are given: Faculty and staff members will dress in a well-groomed manner. Dress is to be professional, neat, and modest, and should convey an attitude of respect. Dress is to be appropriate to each individuals position and the nature of the work performed. The faculty and staffs attitude in adhering to the stated dress code should present to the student body a model of joyful submission.
Female Faculty and Staff

Dress Code for Official Occasions Official occasion attire includes suits, dresses and dressy pant suits. Dressy shoes coordinated with the outfit (as stated in the classroom/daily dress code) are appropriate. Attire for graduation is a dress or suit which does not extend below the length of the graduation gown. If the dress extends below the graduation gown it must be black or dark blue in color. Dressy shoes (no sandals) of a dark color (black, dark blue or dark brown) should be worn for the graduation ceremony. Dress for Classroom/Daily Office Duties Professional dress includes: Dresses or skirts (modesty reflected in length, slit openings, and style). Dress slacks that are neat and fit modestly. (Elementary teachers are allowed to wear pants of more casual material, i.e. twill or denim, with a double-stitched inseam.) Blouses, sweaters, jackets, and blazers coordinated with skirts and dressy slacks. These are dressy rather than casual, and present a professional appearance. Tops which are long enough to prevent skin from showing when arms are raised. Sleeveless tops must be non-revealing (with the edge at the shoulder). It is preferred that sleeveless tops are worn under a sweater, jacket or blazer. Casual tops must fit modestly and should be dressed up with an appropriate necklace, scarf or jacket. Capri/crop slacks that are made of dressy material and are approximately mid-calf in length. Shoes - heels, flats, open-toed shoes, dressy open shoes (sandals) with a raised back/heel. Hair neat and clean. Unprofessional attire includes: Casual pants (double stitched side seams, jeans and cotton knit pants). Capri slacks just below the knee in length. Shirts - polo-style shirts, sweatshirts. Shorts.
31
Attire Guidelines (continued)

Hair extreme styles and coloring. Jewelry distracting or inappropriate for age, facial piercings (nose, tongue, lip). Body art visible tattoos are discouraged and may be limited at the discretion of the administration.
Friday Wear The professional dress code for classroom/daily duties is always appropriate for Fridays. Two exceptions apply to Friday wear for female faculty and staff: jeans of a solid color that do not give the appearance of excessive wear may be worn on Fridays. Additionally, Ben Lippen logo polo shirts may be worn. Dress Code for Other Occasions As with every area of the dress code, attire for other occasions should be modest, represent with excellence the mission of Ben Lippen, and set a positive example for the students. Because the events in this category vary significantly in purpose and type, faculty members should follow the specific guidelines established for, and stated with, each activity. PE Instructor and Coaching Staff The attire of Ben Lippen PE teachers and coaches should promote the image of a coaching professional and instructor; not just the physical activity of the day. Professional dress includes: Shorts (at least four inch inseam). Collared polo-style shirt. Athletic shoes with socks. Ben Lippen tee shirts/athletic shirts that are in good repair and neat in appearance. Sweatpants as weather dictates. Unprofessional attire includes: Tank tops. Non-Ben Lippen logo shirts. Sandals. Cotton sweat pants. Spandex clothing. Form-fitting clothing. Summer Dress Code As professionals, we recognize that our attire conveys a message to our students, parents and community regarding the quality of Ben Lippens program. Therefore, faculty members who are teaching/tutoring students on the campus and staff members working in school offices during the summer should follow the same guidelines as stated for the regular school year. Summertime is, however, a time for reorganizing, cleaning, and arranging the physical environment at Ben Lippen. As a result, more casual clothing may be worn when the scheduled activities for the day warrant a change. This could include jeans and casual tops. Shorts, however, should not be worn in the office. 32

Collared shirts, sweatshirts or regular student PE uniform shirts may be worn. Shirts are to be worn at all times. Summer Dress Code As professionals, we recognize that our attire conveys a message to our students, parents and community regarding the quality of Ben Lippens program. Therefore, faculty members who are teaching/tutoring students on the campus and staff members working in school offices during the summer should follow the same guidelines as stated for the regular school year. Summertime is, however, a time for reorganizing, cleaning, and arranging the physical environment at Ben Lippen. As a result, more casual clothing may be worn when the scheduled activities for the day warrant a change. This could include jeans and casual tops. Shorts, however, should not be worn in the office.

The American Marketing Association (AMA) defines a brand as a name, term, sign, symbol or design, or a combination of them intended to identify the goods and services of one seller or group of sellers and to differentiate them from those of other sellers.
Identity and Style Guidelines

Each of us plays an important role in branding Ben Lippen School. While the Office of Corporate Marketing and Communications is charged with the marketing communications, make no mistake that it is the sum of all parts of the Ben Lippen experience which indeed brands or differentiates us. The following communication guidelines uphold our branding efforts. If you have questions, please contact the Office of Corporate Marketing and Communications at (803) 807-5535.
Identity Guidelines
The word brand began simply as a way to tell one persons cattle from another by means of a hot iron stamp. The word brand has continued to evolve to encompass identity it affects the personality of a product, company or service. http://dictionary.reference.com

Style Guidelines
The Associated Press Stylebook is the most widely accepted authority on writing styles. It serves as Ben Lippens primary resource. The website www.dictionary.com may be used as a secondary resource. General Reminders Use quotation marks when referencing a publication (e.g. Reach Out Columbia) but not newspapers (e.g. The State), the Bible, and reference-type books. Spell out numbers one through nine (e.g. We have three third grade teachers.). Use numerals for numbers 10 and up (e.g. Ben Lippen School has 800 students.). Follow the aforementioned rules on numbers when referring to grades (e.g. fourth grade, 10th grade). Spell out numbers that start a sentence (e.g. One hundred students went on the field trip.). For ages and percentages, always use numerals even for numbers less than 10 (e.g. More than 5 percent of our students are from Spain.). Spell out symbols (e.g. More than 5 percent of our students are from Spain.). Within text, states should be abbreviated with periods (e.g. S.C.). Do not use punctuation (e.g. SC) on mailing addresses. Do not abbreviate months. Do not abbreviate days of the week. Do not capitalize seasons unless it is part of a formal name (e.g. June 21 is the first day of summer. Pick up your schedule for Fall Semester on Friday.) e.g. = an example i.e. = that is to say (e.g. We are going to cut down the pines trees (i.e. all the trees along the sidewalk). Do not capitalize job titles unless it is being used as part of the name. (e.g. Interim Headmaster Mickey Bowdon will be addressing the parents. Mickey Bowdon, interim headmaster, will be addressing the parents.) Periods go inside quotation marks. Use capitalization when referring to a group by its full name (e.g. Ben Lippen School Board of Directors, Ben Lippen School Booster Club, Ben Lippen Elementary School, Ben Lippen Middle School, Ben Lippen High School). Do not use capitalization when referencing a group by an abbreviated version of its name (e.g. board of directors, the board, booster club, elementary school, middle school, high school). Do not capitalize subject titles unless they are a proper noun (e.g. math, AP Math). Alumni - alumnus: when referring to a man who attended a school. - alumni: when referring to a group of men who attended a school - alumna: when referring to a woman who attended a school - alumnae: when referring to a group of women who attended the school - alumni: when referring to a group of men and women
