About

Information Technology Services currently maintains this blog. We will provide information to prepare students for attending Missouri State-West Plains, whether in person or online.

The community of scholars that is Missouri State University-West Plains is committed to developing educated, independently thinking persons who will accept responsibility to act in accordance with the following principles:

  • Practicing personal and academic integrity
  • Being a full participant in the educational process and respecting the right of all to contribute to the “Marketplace of Ideas”
  • Treating all persons with civility, while understanding that tolerating an idea is not the same as supporting it
  • Being a steward of the resources of the community
  • Promoting the unity of the community while still striving to enhance self-actualization
  • Seeking to create, preserve, and share knowledge and truth in understanding

Choosing to accept these principles suggests that each participant of the community refrains from and discourages behavior that threatens the freedom and respect each member deserves.

Approved by the Board of Governors, February 19, 1999.

Adopted by the West Plains Administrative Council, Faculty Senate, Staff Advisory Council, and Student Government Association, February 2000
