Center for Bioenvironmental Research
In 1983, Tulane President
Dr. Eamon Kelly established a unique partnership with Xavier University and its
President, Dr. Norman Francis. The center would be comprised of students and
faculty from both Universities to ensure development across established
academic research areas. The proposal for what would become the Center for
Bioenvironmental Research (CBR) at Tulane and Xavier Universities was prepared
by joint committees of faculty and administrators from both universities.
Today, a highly creative Information Technology Operation with nine connected
programmatic sites has developed strong communication links within the three
campuses and with the external community of scholars and citizens. The CBR
Faculty Council, composed of faculty from the three campuses, meet every other
month to provide advice and counsel. The partnership between Tulane and Xavier,
envisioned 12 years ago, remains strong and productive.
