The President's Leadership Program and the Luter School of Business. We are also known for the Ferguson Center for the Arts which was designed by I.M. Pay who designed the Louvre in France.

My freshman year the Fergusson Center for the Arts was completed. It includeds a state of the art concert hall and theatre hall and has brought an unprecedented number of artists and performances to Newport News that would otherwise not have come. It has attracted many to Newport News and Christopher Newport University and in doing so has begun to bring up the area around Newport News. Aside from that I think we are best known for our on-campus housing. It is all relatively new and much nicer than most if not all colleges in the state of Virginia.

CNU is known best for both its business school and its school of the arts. CNU is also infamous for its aquostic theater, The Fergueson Center. There are constantly famous artists performing here, making our drama/art program very desirable. It also brings in many speakers from large companies, reaching out to CNU's career seeking upperclassmen. CNU also has some of the most successful athletic programs. We are consistantly near the top if not at the very top of our conference in every single sport. Our track team for example has been national champions for the past 12 year.
