Concordia University students are settling into their new building this month as part of the school’s multi-million dollar expansion to attract more nursing students amid a national nursing shortage.
According to Concordia officials, the acquisition of a 6.6 acre developed site the school purchased earlier this year—part of a $43 million expansion of its program—was needed due to rising rates of aging baby boomers, which are placing “added stress on healthcare across the country,” as nursing schools are struggling to meet rising demand.
