Mission
Bowling Green State University is passionate about offering a nurturing atmosphere where values exploration, critical thinking and character development flourish. The goal is to graduate culturally literate, self-assured, technologically sophisticated, productive citizens who are prepared to lead, inspire and preserve the great traditions of democracy. The University emphasizes a culture of respect, celebrates diversity and provides the personal attention typical of a small, private college. Smaller residential learning communities, undergraduate research, first-year transition programs, interdisciplinary collaborations and an expectation of campus and community involvement reinforce learning both in and out of the classroom.
