Walters State's official mission is to be "a learning-centered, comprehensive, public community college dedicated to increasing educational attainment and supporting economic development by providing affordable, high quality educational opportunities for the residents of East Tennessee."
From a marketing perspective, our mission is our "brand" essence. Visually, Walters State's brand essence is reflected in every communication intended for public consumption. This includes not only the college's logos, seal and trademark but also publications, letterheads, envelops, memoranda, business cards, brochures, the institutional website, email correspondence and other materials that represent the college as a whole. The college's credibility and the public's perception of the college are reflected in our visual brand.
Therefore, it is essential that the college present a unified, consistent image that protects and enhances the college's mission. Adherence to the Walters State Branding and Graphic Standards Guide and the Web Site Policy and Guide will help ensure the integrity of the college's public image and accurately reflect our mission and purpose.

Groups wishing to have their own official social media account must first seek approval from Communications and Marketing. All group facebook pages will be listed on the official college facebook page as a "favorite." Twitter accounts will be followed by the Walters State Community College account. This will enable students to be more informed and involved.
All social media accounts officially recognized by Walters State must have a faculty or staff member as an administrator at all times. Should the designated advisor leave the college for any reason or no longer wishes to be an account administrator, it is that person's responsibility to designate a replacement and inform Communications and Marketing of this change. This includes summer months.
