Sep. 23, 2015: Concordia College has again been named one of the Best Regional Colleges in the North Region, according to the U.S. News & World Report's 2016 Best Colleges rankings. For the fourth consecutive year, the college has also been ranked in the top 5 for campus ethnic diversity in the North Region.
"We are thrilled to see Concordia College recognized once again in the rankings," said Dr. Sherry Fraser, provost. "This recognition honors our dedication to providing an impactful experience for our students with innovative academic, spiritual, and student life offerings. We celebrate this recognition with our students, faculty, staff, alumni, and the entire Concordia community."
U.S. News & World Report ranks the academic quality of each institution based on the following key measures: assessment of excellence, graduation and retention rates, faculty resources, student selectivity, financial resources, graduation rate performance, and alumni giving rate. Each category is weighted, from which an overall institutional score is generated.

Bronxville Public Library
The Bronxville Public Library traces its origins back to 1875, when it was a small lending library housed in a room attached to the “Bronxville Model School.” The Library was officially chartered in 1906 and moved into the Village Hall Building. The needs of the library grew with the town and, in 1942, a new standalone building was erected, which is where the Library is today. Over the years, the Library was renovated and expanded to meet the needs of the community.
The Library has wonderful resources for adults and children and offers a comfortable and relaxing environment. The Library also houses a fine art collection, consisting principally of Bronxville painters and sculptors.
The Library offers special events, art exhibitions, and programs for adults, young adults and children. All events are open to the public, unless otherwise indicated.
