Concordia University Wisconsin- Mequon

From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

Concordia University Wisconsin is a higher education institution and an affiliate of the 10-member Concordia University System, which is operated by the second-largest Lutheran church body in the United States, the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod (LCMS).

The university is a coeducational, NCA-accredited university with 78 undergraduate majors and minors, nine graduate programs, and eight accelerated Adult Education programs.

The university's mission statement reads: "Concordia University Wisconsin is a Lutheran higher education community committed to helping students develop in mind, body, and spirit for service to Christ in the Church and the world."

Location

The university is in Mequon, Wisconsin, a city of just over 20,000 citizens about 15 minutes north of downtown Milwaukee. Residing on the shore of Lake Michigan, the university owns a campus with over of indoor walkways.

History

Concordia University Wisconsin was opened in 1881 at Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church in downtown Milwaukee. Classes were taught in the basement of the building, with only 13 students in attendance. One year later, the college, known then as Concordia College, purchased nearby land to install a permanent facility. The college resided between 31st and 33rd streets and State St. and Highland Blvd. in Milwaukee until 1983. These facilities are now partially occupied by the Indian Community School.

Purchase of current facility

The current location of Concordia University Wisconsin was formerly a Roman Catholic convent owned and operated by the School Sisters of Notre Dame in affiliation with the Roman Catholic Church.

In the early 1980s, the School Sisters of Notre Dame sought out buyers for their facility. Among those who offered to buy the school were Concordia College of Milwaukee and the State of Wisconsin, which was considering using the facility for a penitentiary. It was rumored that the School Sisters also received offers from a more theologically contemporary church, but refused the offer on the basis of their liberal liturgical heritage. The Sisters, desiring to preserve their religious heritage, decided to accept a reduced offer from the liturgically more traditional Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod's Concordia College.

Question: What are some good colleges near Concordia University, in Mequon, Wisconsin?

My boyfriend is going there next year, and i still have another year to look at colleges, and i wanted to look at colleges around in that area, within a decent/reasonable driving distance so we could visit each other on the weekends. Also, i was thinking of more of a private, smaller school setting with a good community. Any ideas or websites that would help would be amazing! THANKS!!!

I go to Concordia, There are a number of good schools that are pretty close. Area Private Colleges Include: Cardinal Stritch in Northern Milwaukee/Suburbs- 10 Mins south Marquette in Milwaukee- 20 mins south Carroll in Waukesha- 30 mins southwest Lakeland in Sheboygan- 30 mins north Carthage in Kenosha- 1 1/2 hours south Wisconsin Lutheran in Wauwatosa- 20 mins south Milwaukee School Of Engineering- 20 mins south Area Public Universities include: UW Parkside in Racine/Kenosha- 1 1/2 hours south UW Milwaukee- 15-20 mins south UW Oshkosh- 1 1/2 hours north In my opinion, you sound like you would really like to just go to Concordia, they have a ton of majors, with FAFSA figured in it's not really that expensive, everything is 100% percent indoors to protect against those harsh Wisconsin winters, you don't have to go outside for anything unless you have to go to your car, which by the way, PARKING IS FREE!!!! And its only 15 mins from downtown Milwaukee. You get a peaceful small-town setting with the benefits of big-city life. It's pretty cool.

Question: Does anyone know how Concordia University in Wisconsin matches up to other local MBA programs?

Primarily considering UW-Milwaukee as an alternative, but I cannot find much information on how they stack up against one another.

You can do a bit of a comparison by going to the National Center for Educational Statistics. http://nces.ed.gov/IPEDS/compare_colleges/?frm=8 (or go to http://nces.ed.gov/ and search for COOL. You want the College Navigator)

Question: Does anyone go to Concordia University of Wisconsin? How is it there?

Academics? Party? Location?

I grew up a mile from there. It's located 20 minutes outside of Milwaukee in the suburb of Mequon (which is a more affluent area). I can't really vouch for the academics (since I do not really know), but I don't think it's much of a party school. Most housing is on campus dorms. But I'll also say that I did a fair amount of partying in the dorms when I went to school, so it still could be a fun time. You'll probably want to have a car to get around, sicne there's not much for public transportation right around there.
