Loras College was founded in 1839 by the Most Rev. Mathias Loras, the first Bishop of Dubuque. The college was established as a Catholic liberal arts institution in response to the need for more higher education institutions in the Midwest. At the time, Loras College was one of only a handful of Catholic colleges west of the Mississippi River. The college offered its first classes in 1840 and was initially located on what is now called Cathedral Square. In 1863, Loras College moved to its current location on Bluff Street and has remained there ever since. Throughout its history, Loras College has been dedicated to providing a quality education that emphasizes faith, learning and service. The college has grown significantly over the years, adding new academic programs and facilities while still maintaining its commitment to providing an outstanding educational experience rooted in Catholic values and traditions. Today, Loras College is home to nearly 2,000 students who come from all over the country to take advantage of its diverse academic offerings and vibrant campus life. Check Searchforpublicschools for a list of public schools in Rhode Island.
