Lee University is a private, faith-based liberal arts college in Cleveland, Tennessee, historically affiliated with the Church of God (Cleveland, Tennessee), an evangelical Christian denomination. Lee began as the Church of God Bible Training School in 1918, a small Bible institute of twelve students and one teacher. The school grew and became Lee College, with a Bible college and junior college on its current site, in 1948. Twenty years later, Lee received accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools as a four-year liberal arts college. In 1997, Lee made the transition from college to comprehensive liberal arts university granting graduate degrees. The university is divided into five colleges and schools: the College of Arts & Sciences, the Helen DeVos College of Education, the School of Music, the School of Religion, and the Division of Adult Learning. Lee University is named for F.J. Lee, the institution's second president. Lee University is continuously listed on rankings such as “America’s 100 Best College Buys” and U.S. News and World Report’s “Great Schools, Great Prices.” Since the year 2000, Lee University has been listed in the Princeton Review ranking of “best colleges” in the Southeast. Lee University was listed as number 13 among the 20 Colleges Most Committed to Community Service by USA Today College in 2011. In 2009, Lee received the honor of being one of six Presidential Awardees in the President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll. In 2009, Voices of Lee, the a cappella vocal ensemble directed by Danny Murray, competed on the first season of The Sing-Off, an a capella competition television show on NBC, hosted by Nick Lachey. They finished in third place. In January 2013, the Lee University Festival Choir, a special group composed of singers from each of the choral ensembles, performed at the inauguration of President Barack Obama in Washington, D.C.
