Important Institutional Documents
Student Life is intentional about creating a community that is founded on biblical principles. The Community Life Statement and Diversity Matters at Westmont intentionally appear at the top of this page because each is foundational and together describe the high responsibility and privilege you bear, having chosen to be a member of this community.
Community Life Statement and Behavioral Expectations
We encourage you to read these statements every year you are a student here and to imagine how you will actively contribute to making Westmont a place that truly reflects our commitment to living and loving as Christ would. It might require taking risks, guarding your heart, controlling your tongue, entertaining a new perspective, submitting to authority or patiently listening to a friend in need. Full-hearted engagement with this community is no small task but is so rewarding when done well.
