Concordia University Delays New Boise Law School

By Dan Filler

ADVERTISEMENTS

Boise-idaho-train-depot Who knew?  Apparently Portland, Oregon's Concordia University  had been planning on opening a new law school in Boise next year, and now it's putting that plan off to a later date.  According to this story:


Andrea Bruno, vice president for advancement at Concordia University in Portland, Ore., says school officials want more time to develop the law degree program, secure a location and raise money. In December, the university had brought in about $1.5 million of the $7 million it needs for the project. Bruno says the university has since made progress, but she declined to give a specific amount.

I wasn't previously aware of this, but Boise is the site of some competitive law school builiding.  Last year, Concordia brought former Idaho Supreme Court Justice Cathy Silak aboard to create the new  law school.  At the same time, the University of Idaho School of Law is looking to expand into the Boise market.  While the U ultimately hopes to site a full three year program in the city, the short term goal - still in need of funding - is to create a third year program in Boise.
