Vision and Goals
The vision of College of the Ozarks is to develop citizens of Christ-like character who are well-educated, hard-working, and patriotic.

To achieve this vision, the College has Academic, Vocational, Christian, Patriotic and Cultural goals. Even as College of the Ozarks has evolved through secondary and junior college stages to the present four-year liberal arts institution, the fundamental goals of our no-tuition college have remained the same.

Academic Goal
To provide a sound education, based in the liberal arts.

Vocational Goal
To promote a strong work ethic, encouraging the development of good character and values.

Christian Goal
To foster the Christian faith through the integration of faith with learning, living, and service.

Patriotic Goal
To encourage an understanding of American heritage, civic responsibilities, love of country, and willingness to defend it.

Cultural Goal
To cultivate an appreciation of the fine arts, an understanding of the world, and adherence to high personal standards.

Now that you have mentioned Christian Colleges. Has the UPC worked with varying states to set up Christian K1-K12 schools? The majority of what we see in Virginia are Catholic, Presbyterian, Baptist or Methodist. I am sure my wife would be interested in helping with the requirements required in our state for target cities in Virginia. My children have graduated and I cannot turn back time for them, but we can contribute with her knowledge and financially.

If Apostolic schools provided outstanding curriculum; preparing students for colleges and trades, that could be a great tool for growth in our fellowships.

James 2:26 (KJV) For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
