Christian Brothers University is renowned and respected for its distinctive, vibrant, and vigorous educational programs. This small, friendly, and remarkably diverse campus in central Memphis helps students develop ethical values even as it prepares them to step up, stand out, and lead in professional careers.
Regularly rated one of the best universities in the South, CBU traces its roots to a 17th-century educational innovator, Saint John Baptist de La Salle. While strongly rooted in the 21st century, education at CBU honors those Lasallian traditions -- especially in the focus on faith, service, and community.

Note: During our event, it will be Fall Break at CBU so we'll have the entire campus to ourselves.
