Medaille University in Buffalo, NY announced this week that it will be closing. You can read more in "Medaille University to close at the end of August," posted by Spectrum News 1 and the Medaille website offers information on teachout agreements and other resources.
Medaille University was founded in 1875 as the Institute of the Sisters of St. Joseph. It became Mount St. Joseph Normal School in 1927, Mount St. Joseph Teachers College in 1937, and Mount St. Joseph College in 1964. It was then recharted in 1968 as non-sectarian Medaille College. The college requested and received approval in May 2022 from the New York State Education Department Board of Regents for an amendment to Medaille’s charter to operate as a university.
