Location

Carthage gives you the opportunities of a city and the beauty and safety of the country. The 95-acre campus is situated on the Lake Michigan shore, midway between Milwaukee and Chicago. Once a city park, the campus is lush with stately oaks and has a sandy beach. You can explore the campus and surrounding areas on foot, bicycle, or inline skates using an extensive path system.

The neighboring community of Kenosha, Wisconsin, is a former manufacturing center that rapidly is becoming a residential and resort destination attracting young families from throughout the Midwest. You can look forward to internship and employment opportunities with nearby companies such as Abbott Laboratories, Accenture Consulting, Jockey International, SC Johnson, Kraft Foods, McDonald's Corporation, and Snap-on Incorporated. If you're thinking about becoming a teacher, many opportunities are available to Carthage graduates within local school systems.

You can reach Milwaukee's Mitchell airport or Chicago's O'Hare airport in less than an hour's drive. Metra and Amtrak trains and Greyhound bus service to Chicago are less than 15 minutes from campus.
