  • 2005-2006, Our Plan Includes the Construction of the Education, Business & Technology (EBT) Building with State-Of-The- Art Classrooms and Cutting Edge Technology
    From the office of the President: SEEKING AN OPPORTUNITY TO SHAPE THE WORLD’S FUTURE? If you saw an opportunity to change people’s lives and shape the world’s future, would you want to participate? We at Concordia University Irvine have a vision and a plan. We aim to further enhance our ability to transform students’ lives into the most excellent examples of Christian professionals who will then change their families, institutions, communities and society. This opportunity is not only a vision but a necessity in the university’s evolving aspirations for influencing aca- demic and professional excellence. In 2005-2006, our plan includes the construction of the Education, Business & Technology (EBT) Building with state-of-the- art classrooms and cutting edge technology. This optimum instructional facility will become a type of launch pad for students to achieve their goals, shape their futures and provide a catalyst for lives of productivity, service and education to Christian values. The world needs more well educated Christ-centered leaders. For 30 years, Concordia University has been a leader in Christian values and academic excellence that positions those individuals in the roles that will make a difference in all areas of life. Now we are creating a convergence of purpose and place that will take Concordia’s mission to the next level with the Education, Business & Technology Building. The direct result of our success will be the changed lives of Concordia’s students and the lives that they in turn influence as they enter their careers and begin to change the world. Concordia University Irvine welcomes you to shape the world by launching your future here.

  • Wendell Berry and the Christian Liberal Arts Todd E. Pickett
    Wendell Berry and the Christian Liberal Arts Todd E. Pickett | Biola University Delivered at the Eighteenth Annual Conversation on the Liberal Arts March 21–23, 2019 | Westmont College, Santa Barbara, CA 1 Wendell Berry and the Christian Liberal Arts Dr. Todd E. Pickett, Biola University, ©2019 Although they have come in many shapes and sizes over the last hundred years, liberal arts models in higher education have justified themselves by connecting to something greater than an education’s disciplinary or professional specializations. In its various forms, it has sought to integrate, to connect, to re-member diverse fields of knowledge that in life are connected but in specialization can get dismembered. At its most ambitious, it has aimed at an educational wholeness. The assumption has been that knowledge, like life, does its best work in the person and in the world when it is whole and related, directed toward connections to “what really matters” beyond our individualized selves. Ironically, the growing dis-ease with the liberal arts among some constituencies has been that a liberal arts education is no longer connected to “what really matters.” Today, what does matter increasingly is that students are educated to find the best jobs with the highest salary upsides so they can afford to flourish in the modern industrial economy. I am sympathetic. I consider gainful employment one of the two primary ends of a college education and with two nearly post-college children currently trying to launch careers, I hold this value deeply. At least one criticism of a liberal arts education, and perhaps the chief one, is that it distracts from this end.
