We are literally at the heart of the University. The Cathedral of the Sacred Heart is surrounded by Shafer Dining Hall, Hibbs Hall, the Student Commons and Cabell Library. The front doors look out on Monroe Park. You’ll walk by it on your way to everything, it’s really impossible to miss. However, CCM can be found in the"House". The CCM House is on the back right corner of the Cathedral (if you are looking at the front doors of the Church). You will see Big Brown Doors that face Shafer Dining Hall. Everyone is welcome when the doors are open!
But what is the house for? It’s for you. To study in the library rooms on the 3rd floor. To play on the pool table and gaming systems on the first floor. To relax in between classes and catch up with friends. But most importantly, the House is the place out of which we create, design, engineer and play with programs that serve our fellow students, the university and the community through service, faith and fun. This is where Alternative Spring Break programs to Haiti are born and where clothing drives for inner city schools get created. This is where Christ comes alive on campus through you.
