 Responsibility
“Our responsibility is to do what we can, learn what we can,
improve the solutions, and pass them on.”

We value embodying personal and social responsibility
Responsibility is personal accountability for actions and behaviors;
responsibility implies an ability to make moral and rational decisions,
be answerable for those decisions, and to be considered trustworthy.
Examples of responsibility in action include:
- Practicing good stewardship of university resources
- Involving constituents in planning processes and decision making where appropriate
- Modeling good citizenship behaviors for students (civic responsibility, community service)
- Acting as representatives of the institution on and off the campus
