PHILOSOPHY
Concordia is a historically black, four-year, coeducational college, owned and operated by The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod. Therefore, the Christian faith as taught from the Holy Scriptures and subscribed to by The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod is the foundation and guide for all programs, activities, and relationships at Concordia. Each individual is regarded and treated as a redeemed child of God supported by His love and forgiveness. Thus, Concordia's campus community is comprised of individuals living and growing under the power of the Holy Spirit. Concordia is committed to the premise that a Christian education is essential for the total development of the potential of each individual and that instruction must begin at the students level of skills and ability. Therefore, the Christian faith is reflected in its academic programs and services, both developmental and regular college level, as well as in its student life services and activities. All disciplines in the traditional liberal arts curriculum provide the conceptual framework necessary for analysis and problem solving in society while the fine arts enlighten and enrich the human spirit. Its academic programs are supported by the latest technology and learning resources. Concordia's faculty is sensitive and responsive to the academic needs of each student and the college is committed to educating students for responsible and effective service to God and fellowman. Concordia fosters a community in which the Christian values of group living are emphasized. The college provides special activities and programs that promote the development of social concern and sensitivity toward the dignity and worth of each individual. These activities and programs help students acquire attitudes and skills essential for self-understanding, leadership, and cooperation with others. Its Christian campus atmosphere is also supported by such activities as chapel worship, Bible study, dormitory devotions, intercollegiate and intramural athletics, and participation in various organizations and clubs. |
