Institutional Integrity

Seward County Community College is an open-door institution committed to the principle that higher education should be available to every person who can benefit. The purpose of a comprehensive community college is to serve all students who can in turn build a better society. As a public institution, the college is guided by Kansas statute and legislative directives.

The ethical character of an educational organization is reflective of its leadership. Among those involved in the art and science of teaching, it is imperative that both teachers and leaders demonstrate a strong commitment to democratic principles, ethical behavior, and all activities being governed by these rules, regulations and policies of the institution.

The fundamental contributions of education to society demand commitment to exemplary values. Educators influence, shape and teach the values, attitudes and beliefs held by tomorrow’s leaders and citizenry.
