    Increase your salary, get your degree in your spare time - FREE Application to Search Online Universities for a limited time

    Lindenwood University is a four-year liberal arts institution in St. Charles, Missouri, just northwest of St. Louis and St. Louis County. With a current enrollment of 15,000 students, Lindenwood confers 13% of all the college degrees in the state of Missouri and is the fastest-growing college or university in Missouri. With the main St. Charles campus currently at 1.8 km² (450 acres) and growing, Lindenwood also operates satellite campuses in Wentzville, O’Fallon, south St. Louis County, northwest St. Louis County, Moscow Mills, Washington, Weldon Spring, Belleville, Illinois, and the Daniel Boone Campus in Defiance. Sibley, now left with next to nothing, took possession of everything his former partner owned—which happened to be little more than 0.5 km² (120 acres) of land in St. Charles, Missouri known as the “Linden Wood” because of the large amount of linden trees that grew there. In 1827, the Sibleys started the Linden Wood School for Girls, as Mary Sibley already had been running a school in St. Charles. Dr. James Evans, who had been serving as the university’s acting president since Spellmann’s death, was chosen as Lindenwood’s twenty-first president on February 9, 2007.
