Christian Brothers University is a Catholic academic institution. It is the largest private university in West Tennessee, and the oldest degree-granting institution in the city of Memphis. CBU is located in the heart of Midtown Memphis. It is run by the Christian Brothers, a Catholic teaching order. As of 2004, the school had 109 faculty members and enrolled 1900 students. CBU also originally housed the high school CBHS where the oldest high school band in America was formed.
Campus
CBU is located on a 75-acre wooded campus in the heart of
Midtown, Memphis, about four miles east of downtown. Kenrick Hall is the oldest building on campus, constructed in
1939 and was the original Christian Brothers High School. CBU’s architecture follows the
Georgian Style popular at the time of the campus’ relocation to East Parkway. Beautiful arch-covered walkways traverse the main campus, allowing students and faculty to get to their classes in shade and protection from the unpredictable Memphis weather. The campus is enclosed by an iron fence with brick accents with entrances off East Parkway South (main entrance), Central Avenue (student parking), and Avery Avenue (the Brothers' Residence parking).
History
Christian Brothers College was founded November 19, 1871, by members of the
Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools, a
Roman Catholic religious teaching congregation. The Brothers came to Memphis at the request of the people and clergy of the city, a move which culminated more than a decade of efforts to persuade the Brothers to open a college in Memphis. Brother Maurelian was appointed the first President.
