New searchable database identifies how schools perform on cost, graduation and loan defaults. See how schools such as Lindenwood University rated.
President Barack Obama used part of his State of The Union address Feb. 12 to promote the release of an education scorecard, a tool he said "parents and students can use to compare schools based on a simple criteria: where you can get the most bang for your educational buck."

Speaker challenges Lindenwood University students to find a platform to share their dreams with others.

New property will be home to a nursing completion program and possibly other health programs.
