CBU Host for Lasallian International Consortium

On January 16, Christian Brothers University (CBU) hosted the Coordinating Council for the Lasallian International Programs Consortium. The Consortium is a cooperative group composed of the seven U.S. Lasallian colleges and universities for the purpose of creating and managing high quality educational programs throughout the world for students and faculties.

The program focused on information and issues of ongoing significance to all the members such as numbers of students studying abroad at each school, the numbers studying through other consortium member programs, new programs, and ways to increase participation of students. Those in attendance included representatives from Lewis University, La Salle University, St. Mary’s College of California, Manhattan College and CBU.
