Lee University

Lee University is a private, coeducational university located in Cleveland, Tennessee. It is affiliated with the Church of God, which has its headquarters in the same town. The university has its roots in a Bible training academy founded by that denomination in 1918 and still maintains a strong Christian identity. It is located slightly to the northeast of Chattanooga, in the southeastern part of the state.

The Lee University campus was the home of Bob Jones University (1933-1947) before it moved to its present campus in Greenville, South Carolina. The Rev. Billy Graham attended one year of college (in 1936) at the Cleveland, Tennessee campus location of Bob Jones University before he transferred to Trinity College of Florida....
