Missouri Western State University has been centered historically on students as individuals and as members of the larger society. In building our future as a learning community, we are committed to high quality results for our students, to the academic and personal success of students on campus and beyond campus. As a leader in the region and in the state, Western will demonstrate commitment to the educational, economic, cultural, and social development of the people that we serve. We expect, in fact, to set the standard for excellence in student development and community leadership.
