Reynolds College of Arts and Letters

In Missouri State’s Judith Enyeart Reynolds College of Arts and Letters, we make things. Art and music. Books and films. We make things that fill our world with beauty and ones that spark conversation.

We make connections — between people, ideas and languages. And we make experiences that bring our community together and promote understanding.

The Judith Enyeart Reynolds College of Arts and Letters (RCOAL) is dedicated to the success of our students. Our rigorous programs provide a solid platform for personal growth and professional preparation. We are proud of our mission to nurture literacy in the arts and letters, stimulate self-reflection and build critical thinking while fostering excellence and fueling the creative passions of our students. By making a contribution to the Reynolds College, you are paving the way for arts and letters education at Missouri State!
