Bold move which will permit significant expansion of the health sciences degree programs.

If it had happened in the 1940's, I could have walked to school and saved a LOT of bus money.  |

I didn’t even consider this angle. Makes sense. |

I didn’t even consider this angle. Makes sense. Agreed. I also didn't think of that angle. My Brother went to Concordia, years ago. They have a baseball field and soccer field on campus. A decent gym where their basketball teams played. Hopefully upgraded a bit over the years. If I remember correctly they had a decent sized building that was just for sports right next to the baseball field. Could be a big boost to athletic department |

May facilitate the creation of a dedicated varsity training center, even on the main campus, by moving some intramurals, etc to Concordia.
I guess we just terminate Concordia’s existing teams. We’re they D2 or D3? Big upheaval for those kids.

Concordia also has 3 outdoor and 3 indoor tennis courts.
This move is all about acquiring space.

JAG, but I wouldn't be surprised to see a number of our coaching staff have their offices and sports moved to the Bronxville campus. Baseball and soccer come to mind, since there is an on campus baseball field, and a soccer field as well. Just not sure about stands/bleachers for fans.

Cjb, thanks. Great job. And before greg asks me, the answer is yes. Yes, when I was in grammar school, ICS (also, Guy's alma mater, we did have Saturday morning football practice at what is now Concordia's soccer field. |

Interesting decision. Pass on CNR and move on this one. I wonder if this has been on teh table for a while. In 2016 CNBC rated Bronxville as the most expensive suburb of any US city. 1 Acre in Bronxville is equal to how many in New Rochelle? If Iona plays Concordia(D2), will it count on the schedule?  |
