According to Census Bureau Reports, 1 in 5 people have a disability in the United States. Some disabilities can include vision impairment, hearing impairment, mental health conditions, brain injury, autism spectrum disorders, physical disability…
Homecoming brings together generations of alumni and current students for a busy week of events and celebration. It is a celebration of a shared cobber-ness and the love of community that Concordia brings to the Fargo Moorhead area. This year, homecoming greets Concordia’s campus on Monday, Sept. 24 and extends through Sunday, Sept. 30. Students,…
