Concordia University Wisconsin, Mequon, held a groundbreaking ceremony on May 14 to celebrate the start of construction on its 57,000- square-foot School of Pharmacy building. Milwaukee-based CG Schmidt, Inc., will begin construction on the $12 million project, which is expected to be completed before the fall of 2011 semester. Students in the pharmacy program will begin taking classes this August. The new School of Pharmacy will be the second Pharmacy School in Wisconsin, next to UW-Madison.
