After more than 85 years, Milwaukee's Cardinal Stritch University will close at the end of its spring semester in May. President Dan Scholz said the news is devastating for students, employees and the community but declining enrollment and "fiscal realities" left no alternative. Evan Casey/WPR

A foundation that supports a private Christian school in Milwaukee has bought the now shuttered Cardinal Stritch University campus for $24 million. 

The Ramirez Family Foundation, run by Gus and Becky Ramirez, supports schools for "underserved students" across the globe. Now, they plan to bring a Christian voucher school to Milwaukee County.

I look forward to posting research from the last 30 years.  As an EX- MBA candidate who was one of the original group created by Cardinal Stritch University during the expansion for members of the Milwaukee adult community seeking an advanced degree.  STRITCH has much to place on the table of supporters.  One of which was my church - The Cathedral of St John the Evangelist , 812 N. Jackson, Milwaukee, WI  53202, said Mary Glass - Lector and original group of MBA students.
