CBU still on probation; board will issue verdict in December
As campuses reopen, a shadow over Christian Brothers University is its probationary status.
Last December, its accrediting body notified university administrators that the financial footing, after two years of warnings, was still a concern.
A team from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges will be on campus Oct. 16-18 for a follow-up visit. In December, the commission board will vote on the next step, said spokeswoman Janea Johnson.
“The board can continue the sanction or remove it,” she said.
