My review will not focus…read morethe curriculum but will provide the benefits of taking a few hours to enjoy this lovely campus. Concordia is tucked back in the Clayton neighborhood and sits behind the former CBC, turned Concordia Seminary, turned Washington University building that sits on the corner across from St. Mary's Hospital. I've met some people who have lived in the area and didn't know the place even existed because it really nestled in the community. The campus is gorgeous with little courtyards and smaller grassy knolls, which offers a lovely areas for quiet contemplation and mediation. You may bump into an eager seminary student who is quick to offer the "saving message", but don't worry they don't bite. The chapel is lovely and offers a traditional church setting with large clear windows, a minimalist altar and cross that is breathtaking, and a gorgeous organ. If architecture is your thing than do not pass up the gothic german stylings with slate roofs that probably costs more than the newer airport expansion. If mid-70's history is your thing than you can see the areas where the infamous "Walk Out" took place making national news. The library offers anything and everything relating to history, religion, and philosophy and is hailed as one of the top 10 theological libraries in the nation and highly regarded in the world. I doubt you will find a "Choose Your Own" adventure but you will find something in Greek, Hebrew, Latin, Sanskrit, and other various languages. There is also something in the language of "Veggie Tales" in the DVD area. Lastly, make sure you book a tour and can hit the bell tower and the original smaller chapel where a failed exorcism led to a young boy to be exorcised by the local Roman Catholic priests. The story was properly documented in a nonfiction book by Father Malachi Martin, a fictional book by William Blatty and later a movie called "The Exorcist", perhaps you've heard of this little film? The sequel sucked. If you are interested in learning about theology then I suggest going to iTunes University, as there are many lectures for free. This seminary was one of the first seminaries to be approved by Apple and to use this outlet to serve the public. However, you do miss out on those nice seminary students.

The dynamic gave the performers the ability to showcase their talents (dance, singing and instrumental) without losing the meaning the stories were telling.

My only question is "why was this in the basement theater"... the small audience was nice to be part of, but a larger audience would be nice also. If you want something adult but college youthful to experience this is an excellent event to enjoy.

Webster University Main Campus however, and those that don't own up to their accounting mistakes and allow their "Alumni" to damage their credit call for this poor rating. My specific case of accepting poor guidance and lethargic action when the University's accounting department (along with the Department of Veterans' Affairs) made a mistake and caused me to incur negative credit charges as well as an extra $400 service fee, all because the four staffers at the Main Campus in St Louis took 4 months to figure out they were over paid. They admitted they made the mistake, to prove their point, they overnighted me a check for the difference to "make me whole"... They had no interest in paying the late fees incurred by their delayed response. All it would have taken to keep me from writing this review and more to come, would have been to simply apologize and reimburse me the $400 in fees... but your university couldn't bear to even respond to that request, much less write the check. Webster University will get bad press from me at every campus I come across the rest of my military career. It's not the 80pt Credit Score hit, or $400, but mostly the principles of being a school students should trust.

This was refreshing to see : ) Not surprising for a Catholic university, but there were a couple of beautiful churches near campus. We were not able to go inside buildings on the tour, but it didn't feel as "Catholic" as others that we've been to.

When you've got the University of Missouri at St. Louis as an option, there are various other things in its favor making this urban branch campus in St. Louis proper, but at its outskirts, a plausible alternative. UMSL is referred to by almost everyone as "Uhm-zuhl." It has both undergraduate and graduate programs, as well as a school of optometry, and comes in at about 17,000 students. In my mind, between 15,000 and 20,000 students is the optimal size for a university. That means it's not small enough that everyone will know when you sneeze yet not so large that you'll feel like a number, which rocker Bob Seger once committed to song. UMSL has schools in the bread and butter liberal arts and sciences, business, nursing, and education, among others. It trains a lot of bean counters, nurses, and teachers. Engineering is available in conjunction with Washington University ("Wash U," more or less in the Clayton area), though I don't know how they work out the fee structure, since Wash U is a private university. Not only is the size of the school a big plus, so is the tuition. A 2-semester academic year at a full load comes in at a hair under $10,000. This offer is also extended to communities across the Mississippi River in the metro St. Louis area's Illinois counties. A plan costing about $15,000 is extended to some areas of the Midwest as part of an "exchange program." Clearly, out of state students will pay considerably more than $10,000 a year in tuition to attend. Thus, one can expect mostly local folks to enroll at UMSL but, since it's essentially an urban campus in a bucolic setting at the city's outskirts, there will be a lot of diversity in terms of backgrounds, ages, and the like, hopefully curtailing conformity and groupthink. Because my fans (who really aren't my fans but read my reviews for some stupid reason) claim that I have a "template," I must make good on that. That said, I must tell you about transit options! The St. Louis area has had Metro Link light rail for about two decades and it has two lines. While the lines overlap on the Illinois side of the big river and operate along the same right of way, the route splits in the city somewhere around Forest Park, with one going northwesterly and terminating at STL-Lambert Airport and the other heading toward the southwestern suburbs. There is only one station - North Hanley, and with a huge parking lot - between the airport's closer-in Metro Link stop and the campus. However, UMSL has two Metro Link stops, as does the airport itself! One is at the North Campus and the other is at the South Campus. So, in no time flat, one can be at the airport or can take the train to all of the downtown area's major venues. And rail makes the campus much more convenient for commuters. The South Campus has a few older collegiate buildings with character, while the North Campus has many modernist collegiate brick buildings of the '60s and '70s. I'd say UMSL handily earns 3 stars. However, for its size, cost, value, options, being laid out on pastoral, hilly terrain, and having two Metro Link stops on its campus, I'd have to say it comes in at 4 stars.
