Lakeland College
Lakeland College is a liberal arts college located in Sheboygan County, Wisconsin. Its beginnings can be traced back to the establishment by German immigrants of a school known as the Mission House in the Sheboygan area in 1862. The school was to provide liberal arts education for the immigrants’ children and serve as a training ground for ministers. Eventually the scope of the college expanded and, after 96 years, Mission House was renamed Lakeland College in 1956 and the seminary moved to Minneapolis/St. Paul to become known as the United Theological Seminary of the Twin Cities. Lakeland College continued its tradition of quality education and today, stands as a respected liberal arts college with strong affiliations with the United Church of Christ.
As a liberal arts college, Lakeland’s core curriculum is centered on providing students with a comprehensive course in the arts and sciences in preparation for a deeper and more meaningful appreciation and understanding of their choice of specialization.
For undergraduate students, Lakeland offers a wide variety of majors. For its graduate program, the college’s Kellett School of Adult Education offers master’s degrees in
Business Administration, Education, Counseling, and Theology.
