Fontbonne University is a private Catholic institution located in Clayton, Missouri, a suburb of St. Louis, positioned adjacent to Forest Park and Washington University. Founded in 1923 by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, the university operates from a 16-acre suburban campus featuring a mix of historic and modern buildings, including the original Gothic-style Ryan Hall. The university maintains small class sizes and offers undergraduate and graduate programs, with notable strengths in deaf education, speech-language pathology, dietetics, and special education. Fontbonne provides traditional dormitory housing in two residence halls, St. Joseph Hall and Medaille Hall, while competing in NCAA Division III athletics as the Griffins in the St. Louis Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.
