Midwestern State University's (MSU Texas) West College of Education believes that learning changes both individuals and society. Developing resiliency and tolerance enhances an individual's potential. Through education, the individual becomes a critical thinker and an effective problem solver. Individuals with a cause beyond self contribute to an informed, democratic, and synergistic society. MSU Texas faculty continually strives to establish a reflective and collaborative community to enhance the potential of both the learner and society.
