Washburn University
Washburn University, founded in 1865, is a municipally supported public university located in Topeka, Kansas's state capital, and its law school gives students direct proximity to the Kansas Supreme Court and state legislature, offering unusually accessible opportunities for legal internships and legislative clerkships. The university's unique municipal funding structure, supported partly through a local property tax levy rather than solely state or private funding, distinguishes Washburn from most other American public universities and reflects its origin as a community-supported institution. Washburn's nursing and applied studies programs have built solid regional reputations, and the university's smaller size relative to Kansas's larger public flagships lets it maintain closer faculty engagement typical of smaller regional universities. The university's direct proximity to Kansas's state government and its distinctive municipal funding model have made Washburn a distinctive choice among Kansas's public universities, particularly for students interested in state government, public policy, or law within direct reach of the state capital.
VS
Benedictine College
Benedictine College, formed in 1971 through the merger of two earlier Catholic colleges founded by Benedictine monks and nuns, maintains an active on-campus abbey and monastery, giving the small Atchison, Kansas college a level of direct daily monastic religious presence unusual even among Catholic colleges. The college's explicit commitment to Catholic identity and its core curriculum grounded in Catholic intellectual tradition have made it one of the most academically and religiously traditional Catholic colleges in the Midwest, drawing students specifically seeking that particular combination. Benedictine's enrollment has grown substantially over the past two decades, a notable trend at a time when many small religious liberal arts colleges nationally have faced declining enrollment, reflecting the college's success in attracting students specifically drawn to its traditional Catholic mission. The college's combination of an active on-campus Benedictine monastic community, its explicitly traditional Catholic intellectual curriculum, and its notable recent enrollment growth has made it one of the most distinctive small Catholic colleges in the Midwest.
