Georg "Rector" Schick (February 25, 1831 – January 3, 1915) was a German-American Lutheran pastor, scholar, and professor of classical languages.
[1] In the mid 19th century in Germany, a clergyman named Wilhelm Löhe made public appeals regarding the shortage of German-speaking Lutheran clergy in North America.
[5] On March 31, 1856, Schick was installed as Conrector (vice-principal) along with Director Professor Biewend at Concordia College in St. Louis.
Schick took up the teaching position vacated by Biewend's death while Subrector Saxon assumed the administrative duties.
Schick moved with the college when it was relocated to Fort Wayne, Indiana, due to the turmoil of the Civil War.
