Faculty Honesty and Integrity 
At the heart of our mission lies a fundamental commitment to academic integrity, a value that guides every aspect of the educational experience, including the conduct of our esteemed faculty.
Faculty members hold a position of trust and responsibility. They are educators, mentors, and role models who shape the ethical development of countless students. Therefore, maintaining the highest standards of honesty and integrity is not simply a professional obligation but a moral imperative.

This commitment to integrity manifests in various ways:

  • Upholding the principles of academic freedom and open inquiry. Faculty members foster a learning environment where critical thinking, questioning, and respectful debate are encouraged, free from bias or manipulation.
  • Treating students with fairness and respect. Faculty members provide clear expectations, offer unbiased feedback, and avoid any form of favoritism or discrimination.
  • Being accountable for their actions. Faculty members take responsibility for their mistakes and are open to feedback and improvement.


Maintaining faculty honesty and integrity is an ongoing process, requiring a collaborative effort from all stakeholders. By upholding the highest ethical standards, Northwest Community College faculty are pillars of a trustworthy and enriching educational experience. Their commitment to honesty and integrity inspires students to become responsible citizens, critical thinkers, and ethical leaders in their chosen fields. This statement reaffirms our commitment to fostering a community of faculty who embody the values of academic integrity and serve as exemplary models for our students.
