Proposed Mission Statements
- We will connect to student through learning, campus life, jobs, community engagement
and opportunity.
- WSU's mission is to prepare citizens to be lifelong learners who are adaptive and
culturally aware in an evolving global society. This is accomplished through active
learning and research, creative activities, and engagement in local, regional, and
international communities.
- WSU's mission is to be in the top 35 urban serving communities.
- WSU is an urban serving research institution that is committed to promoting active
learning, knowledge creation, excellent creative activity, and community engagement.
Through comprehensive educational opportunities the university produces scientifically
and technologically literate global citizens with the communication and higher order
thinking skills in today's complex world.
- Provide the educational foundation necessary to prepare people for success i a rapidly
emerging future.

and where theory translates into practical success.

development of a diverse metropolitan community and the state of Kansas.
- Because we are situated in a strategic place in a richly diverse community, we can
offer targeted, focused learning opportunities.
- Mission is to provide accessible and affordable education with a long learning network
for the community.
- Distinguish the university as a distinct experience that serves a niche not served
by other major universities or the community college/trade schools by integrating
new and emerging technology as a vehicle and a catalyses to compete more effectively
for urban and traditional students, to better provide training and education through
research, enhance the ability to more effectively and efficiently meet the university's
community service and cultural responsibilities to our urban environment, and invest
in those amenities and attributes that reinforce the university's current urban educational
experience and creates the environment that appeals to more traditional students.
- My vision for WSU is to go to a football game featuring our Shockers in front of 50,000
screaming fans (half of whom are students) as we quality for a BSC Bowl Playoff.
