Welcome to the University of Missouri style guide

Mizzou has a story to tell. Now it’s time to tell it as one cohesive message — no matter the audience, no matter the storyteller, no matter the setting.

The University of Missouri uses the AP Style Guide, with some exceptions. If you do not see an entry on the Mizzou guide, defer to AP style.

Faculty, staff and students can access the AP Style Guide at apstylebook.com/missouri.

If you’d like to suggest a new term or request an entry be updated, click the gold button in the top menu or email newsandinfo@missouri.edu.
