Cardinal Stritch's closure was announced in April. President Dan Scholz explained the reasons, which included dropping enrollment and other problems.

The Sisters of St. Francis of Assisi opened the school that would become Stritch in 1937. Scholz said the sisters accepted the recommendation of the University's Board of Trustees to close educational programs.
