Mizzou is best known for the excellent athletics, as well as the outstanding education that is possible at the campus. All students and faculty live by the four words that can often be seen hanging from the columns: respect, responsibility, discovery, and excellence. Everyone is encouraged to have respect for themselves and those around them, and to take responsibility in their actions. Trusting in the process of discovery will lead to excellence in your future.
