About Us
BASIC stands for "Brothers and Sisters in Christ." We are a network of college students & churches in the Northeast that meet to enjoy life together, learn about God, and make a difference in the world.
Students on over 20 campuses gather every week to worship God and inspire each other to live out their faith in Christ at school. And every semester, all of the students from dozens of universities gather together in Syracuse, NY for 3 days of passionate worship, incredible teaching, and powerful ministry. Since BASIC was founded in 1978, over 15,000 students from over 60 campuses and dozens of nations have been affected through these conferences.
BASIC was founded at SUNY Oswego by Mike Cavanaugh, who heard clearly from the Lord that, "If you limit yourself to the local church, there is no limit to what I will do through this ministry." By assisting churches to reach the surrounding college campuses, BASIC provides a way for college students to stay involved in a church and not only survive the college experience, but thrive.
You don't have to go through college like everyone else. Be a part of something bigger. Let BASIC link you to thousands of other students determined to make a difference in their generation!
