This Is Aurora UniversityEckhart HallAurora University traces its origins to the 1893 founding of a seminary in the smalltown of Mendota, IL. Though established initially to prepare graduates for ministry, theinstitution soon adopted a broader mission and moved to a new campus on the westernedge of the nearby community of Aurora. With this change came a different nameand a growing enrollment. In 1985, the institution was rechristened Aurora University.In 1992, the Aurora and George Williams College traditions blended when the twoinstitutions entered into the affiliation agreement that paved the way for a mergereight years later.Today Aurora University is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of theNorth Central Association to award degrees at the baccalaureate, master’s, and doctorallevels. The institution enrolls approximately 4,000 degree-seeking students a year onits Illinois and Wisconsin campuses. AU offers its undergraduates a wide range of onandoff-campus learning experiences. Students participate in more than 40 musical,literary, religious, social and service organizations and play active roles in campusgovernance. The university also fields 18 NCAA Division III intercollegiate athleticteams. The Spartans boast a winning tradition with 37 conference titles in recent yearsand 32 regular appearances in national tournaments.The Alumni Hall of Physical Education features a racquetball court, climbing wall,complete locker room facilities, training room, weight room, aerobic-activities room,classroom and coaches’ offices.At AU, we believe that the educational needs of students are served best through theformation of strategic partnerships with institutions of like vision, mission and values.Such collaborations also enhance the well being of the communities around our campus.For example, our innovative partnership with the West Aurora School District is recognizednationally as a model for educational reform. New this year is AU’s $14 millionInstitute for Collaboration that houses this growing collaboration and the students andfaculty it nurtures. Our George Williams College at Williams Bay, WI, also is the scene forimportant collaborative efforts. Last year, the residential, conference and academic facility,developed in partnership with Children’s Oncology Services Inc., opened. In the yearsahead, the new building will serve as the home to the One Step At A Time Camp for childrenwith cancer and the university’s rapidly growing academic program.Aurora University is located in west Aurora, within an hour’s drive of Chicago andat the western end of the Illinois Research and Development Corridor.
