Mission

Rocky Mountain College educates students in the liberal arts and selected professional fields. The liberal arts underlie our commitment to rational inquiry, creative expression, critical thinking, and the practical application of knowledge. We strive to develop reflective, ethically responsible, and productive citizens. We celebrate and strengthen that which unites all of humanity. Core Values: With our roots in both the practical and liberal arts, we value the broadly educated person who is skilled both within a specific discipline and across other disciplines. We honor intellectual curiosity, scientific reasoning, and open discussion. We advocate for a life committed to excellence and service to others, and we work to create a setting in which students are prepared to confront the significant challenges of our time. As a college situated between the northern high plains and the Rocky Mountains, we recognize the distinctive cultural and environmental assets of our region, and we endeavor to address the complex issues that attend such abundance. As an independent college founded in the Christian tradition, we seek to understand that tradition in an open and nonsectarian way. We uphold the importance of ones own beliefs with respect for and fair consideration of others' beliefs. As a residential college, we treasure the personal and communal aspects of our intimate campus atmosphere. We approach learning as a mutual endeavor and believe that students learn best when invited to join a community of faculty and staff who are themselves learners. We are committed to student service in all its forms.
