To those who have and continue to serve, we thank you.

22 years ago, Craig Barrington, BBA’98, made a bet for $100 from friend and fellow alumnus Steve Eagar, to pack up everything and move to England. That bet presented Craig the opportunity to work his way up in London's bustling finance industry, and he hasn't looked back since. He has been fortunate to see the world. During his early years when away from work, he enjoyed travelling on weekend excursions across Europe accompanied by Steve and other CBU Alumni living in London.... Craig now enjoys life with his wife and two sons in England and of note, he did receive that $100 from Steve. We enjoyed talking with Craig about his time on campus and wish him and his family all the best! We will meet you in Cape Breton in the future.
