Who are CMU alumni?

Given CMU's unique history, it's understandable that this question arises! The answer is simple.

An alumnus is any person who has completed a minimum of 18 credit hours at MBBC/Concord, CMBC, or CMU through the Shaftesbury undergraduate or graduate programs, or the Outtatown Discipleship School.

Alumni Profiles & Stories

Ben Borne (CMU ’13) completed a BA with a major in Biblical and Theological Studies. His time at CMU nurtured his love for storytelling and community, shaping a career in communications and public relations focused on building relationships and advancing reconciliation.

Advancing reconciliation through storytelling

"I have always been a storyteller," says Ben Borne over a Zoom call from his home in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. "And what I'm really good at is bringing people together."

Since graduating from CMU with a Bachelor of Arts in 2013, Borne's various endeavors and accomplishments—which are far too innumerable to list but include podcast host and founding his own Public relations firm—all share that similar theme: storytelling.
