“The thing that I talk to my staff about is creating relationships,” said Lisa Manning, Christian Brothers University’s director of undergraduate admissions. “Our counselors are creating relationships with those students at a much earlier stage, not just once they apply, but even before they apply.” (Patrick Lantrip/The Daily Memphian)
