Another College in Lincoln, Illinois: Lincoln Christian University

Last month, I wrote about the closing of Lincoln College in Lincoln, Illinois.

I knew that my buddy Mark had gone to college in Lincoln, Illinois, but left after a semester because of the college's suggestion.  Believe it or not, he was there to study becoming a preacher.  Hard to believe Mark being a preacher.

I only knew of one college in Lincoln, Lincoln College, and was giving him a hard time about his college closing when he told me he did not go to Lincoln College.  He went to Lincoln Christian College, now university.

From Wikipedia

Lincoln Christian College was founded in 1944 as the Lincoln Bible Institute, a four-year Bible-college aligned with the Restoration Movement.  The seminary opened in 1951.

It became a university in 2009.

They are dropping all athletic programs as of the end of this school year.

The school is on 130 acres and on the north side of Lincoln off Illinois Highway 10.
