History

Founded in 1875 as the Sisters of Saint Joseph to train teachers. The school obtained a state charter and became Mount Saint Joseph College in 1937. In 1968, the school enlarged its mission and gained its current name. Enrollment is now at 2,759 students.

College Profile

Medaille is structured similar to AMCC universities such as Penn State Erie and St. John Fisher College. The curriculum is patterned around Liberal Arts & Science foundations, which emphasize interdisciplinary coursework and private university standards. Within the past year, numerous faculty members have been awarded research grants through such organizations as the National Endowment for the Arts, National Science Foundation, and National Institutes of Health.

A member of the Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference (AMCC), Medaille fields 11 NCAA Division III athletic teams for men and women.

Locations

Medaille's main campus is located in Buffalo, New York, on a tree-lined urban setting at the intersection of New York State Route 198 and Parkside Avenue. The campus is within the Olmsted Crescent, a historic area of parkways and landscape designed by Frederick Law Olmsted.

Adjacent to Delaware Park and the Buffalo Zoological Gardens, the main campus is easily accessible by car, bus or Metro Rail. The College is served by the Humboldt-Hospital NFTA rapid transit station, and a circulator shuttle runs frequently between auxiliary parking at the zoo and campus. Medaille is close to the Albright-Knox Art Gallery and the Burchfield-Penney Art Center, as well as the Buffalo & Erie County Public Library, Museum of Science, and the Erie County Historical Society.

In addition to the Buffalo campus, Medaille also has branch campuses in Rochester, NY and Amherst, NY. These campuses offer undergraduate degrees for adult students in Business Administration, and graduate degrees in Business Administration and Organizational Leadership. In addition, the Amherst campus offers graduate degrees in Education, Mental Health Counseling, and Psychology.

Housing

Since the fall of 2001, Medaille has built two residence halls. Both halls use T-3 internet access at each bedside, cable-television and additional amenities. The South Residence Hall offers double-occupancy rooms with private bathrooms, laundry facilities, and computer stations (one per floor). Student lounges overlooking the campus quad and main building offer a place of study and conversation. The North Residence Hall contains apartments for upper-class resident students and suites for entering freshmen and current resident students. Both facilities offer a card-access security feature.
