Thanks for the photos! The buildings look really nice. My son is leaning towards Grand View at this point, and the people on this forum have been helpful and instrumental in his discussion.

The also are generous with financial aid, particularly for students who are active members in Lutheran (ELCA) congregations, but I should add that they are welcoming towards all.

Slightly off topic...but this article in the Register shows how far Grand View has come in a few short years. They started a wrestling program from scratch in 2008...and now they're the top program in their conference.
