General Info:
Cardinal Stritch University has a rich history and tradition dating back to its founding in 1937. We serve students of all faiths and ages in four colleges: College of Arts and Sciences, College of Business and Management, College of Education and Leadership, and the Ruth S. Coleman College of Nursing. With two regional offices and several additional satellite offices, Stritch is the largest Franciscan institution of higher education in North America. The main campus is in suburban Milwaukee, but classes also are held in convenient sites throughout Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Illinois.
Stritch is one of the few Franciscan institutions in North America that grants a doctoral degree.
Stritch is led by President James P. Loftus and a Board of Trustees made up primarily of lay people.
Despite its overall size, Stritch is an intimate, dedicated community. The student/faculty ratio is 16 to 1.
Stritch faculty and staff are committed to the values of St. Francis of Assisi (1181-1226): creating a caring community, sharing compassion for others, reverencing creation, and peacemaking.
