Established in 1956, the University of Dallas is a private, independent Catholic regional university located in Irving, Texas that is accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) and Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.[20] According to U.S. News & World Report, 80% of 2010 graduates participated in international programs, which is the sixth highest percentage of students from any higher education institution in the US to study abroad.[21]

The university comprises four academic units: the Braniff Graduate School of Liberal Arts, the Constantin College of Liberal Arts, the College of Business [accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB)], which includes the Graduate School of Management, and the School of Ministry.[22] The undergraduate program was ranked 14th among 140 regional universities in the Western US by U.S. News & World Report for 2011–2012.[23] Dallas offers several master's degree programs and a doctoral degree program with three concentrations.[24] There are 136 full-time and 102 part-time faculty, and the school has a 12:1 student-to-faculty ratio.[7]

History [edit]

The University of Dallas' charter dates from 1910 when the Western Province of the Congregation of the Mission (Vincentians) renamed Holy Trinity College in Dallas, which they had founded in 1905.[25] The provincial of the Western Province closed the University in 1928, and the charter reverted to the Diocese of Dallas. In 1955, the Western Province of the Sisters of Saint Mary of Namur obtained it to create a new higher education institution in Dallas that would subsume their junior college, Our Lady of Victory College, located in Fort Worth.[26] The Sisters, together with Eugene Constantin, Jr. and Edward R. Maher, Sr., petitioned the Diocese of Dallas to sponsor the University, though ownership was entrusted to a self-perpetuating independent board of trustees.[27] "Bishop Gorman, as chancellor of the new university, announced that it would be a Catholic coeducational institution welcoming students of all faiths and races and offering work on the undergraduate level, with a graduate school to be added as soon as possible. The new University of Dallas opened to ninety-six students in September 1956 on a 1,000-acre tract of rolling hills northwest of Dallas."[27]

Carpenter Hall, the first building on the campus of the University of Dallas

The Sisters of Saint Mary of Namur, monks from the Order of Cistercians (Cistercians), friars from the Order of Friars Minor (Franciscans), and several lay professors formed the University's original faculty.[27] The Franciscans departed three years later; however, friars from the Order of Preachers (Dominicans) joined the faculty in 1958 and built St. Albert the Great Priory on campus. The Cistercians established Our Lady of Dallas Abbey in 1958[28] and Cistercian Preparatory School in 1962,[29] which are both adjacent to campus. The School Sisters of Notre Dame arrived in 1962 and opened the Notre Dame Special School for children with learning difficulties in 1963[30] and a motherhouse for the Dallas Province in 1964,[31] which were both on campus. The Sisters moved the school to Dallas in 1985 and closed the motherhouse in 1987. The faculty now is almost exclusively lay and includes several distinguished scholars.

A grant from the Blakley-Braniff Foundation established the Braniff Graduate School in 1966 and allowed the construction of the Braniff Graduate Center. The Constantin Foundation similarly endowed the undergraduate college, and, in 1970, the Board of Trustees named the undergraduate college the Constantin College of Liberal Arts. The Graduate School of Management, begun in 1966, offers a large MBA program. Programs in art and English also began in 1966. In 1973, the Institute of Philosophic Studies, the doctoral program of the Braniff Graduate School and an outgrowth of the Kendall Politics and Literature Program, was initiated. The School of Ministry began in 1987. The College of Business, incorporating the Graduate School of Management and undergraduate business, opened in 2003.

Since the first class in 1960, University graduates have won significant honors, including 30 Fulbright awards.[32] Accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools came in 1963 and has been reaffirmed regularly.[20] In 1989, it was the youngest higher education institution to be awarded a Phi Beta Kappa chapter.[33]

Governance and leadership [edit]

The University of Dallas is governed by a board of trustees, which currently is chaired by Francis P. Hubach, Jr.[5] According to the University's by-laws, the bishop of Dallas is an ex-officio voting member.

Kevin J. Farrell, bishop of the Diocese of Dallas, currently serves as the Chancellor.[5] The office, held by a Catholic bishop per the constitution of the University, is an unpaid, honorary position.

Previous chancellors include:

  1. Thomas Kiely Gorman (1954–1969)
  2. Thomas Ambrose Tschoepe (1969–1990)
  3. Charles Victor Grahmann (1990–2007)

Thomas W. Keefe became President of the University of Dallas on March 1, 2010.[6][34] Since taking office, the University's endowment has gone down by approximately $4 million,[4] while the percentage of alumni making annual contributions is 11%.[12]

Previous presidents include:

  1. F. Kenneth Brasted (1956–1959)
  2. Robert J. Morris (1960–1962)
  3. Donald A. Cowan (1962–1977)
  4. John R. Sommerfeldt (1978–1980)
  5. Robert F. Sasseen (1981–1995)
  6. Milam J. Joseph (1996–2003)
  7. Frank Lazarus (2003–2009)

Campus [edit]

The UD mall, with the Braniff Tower in the background

The University is located in Irving, TX on a 744 acre (301 hectare) campus.[11] The Las Colinas development is nearby. It is 10 miles (16 km) from downtown Dallas. "It sits in a 50-mile by 10-mile rectangular phenomenon known as a slow-moving earthquake."[35][clarification needed] The campus consists mostly of nondescript, brown-colored rectangular or otherwise box-shaped brick buildings. The mall is the center of campus, with the 187.5 feet-tall (57.15 meters) Braniff Memorial Tower as its focal point. Although the University is Catholic, its campus-exterior lacks almost any religious art. The Princeton Review cites the University of Dallas for having the 4th least beautiful campus of the colleges and universities it ranks.[36]

A Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) Orange-Line light rail station opened near campus on July 30, 2012.[37]

Rome Program [edit]

In 1970, the University started its own study abroad program in which Dallas students, generally sophomores, spend a semester at its campus southeast of Rome in the Alban Hills along the Via Appia.[40] In June 1994, the property was renovated (12 acres [4.86 hectares]) and dedicated as the Eugene Constantin Rome Campus. It includes a library, a chapel, housing, a dining hall, classrooms, a tennis court, a bocce court, a swimming pool, an outdoor Greco-Roman theater, working vineyards and olive groves.

Graduate Programs [edit]

Braniff Graduate School of Liberal Arts [edit]

The Braniff Graduate School of Liberal Arts administers master's degrees in American studies, art, English, humanities, philosophy, politics, psychology, and theology, as well as an interdisciplinary doctoral program with concentrations in English, philosophy, and politics.

Haggerty Art Village [edit]

The University of Dallas Braniff Graduate School of Liberal Arts features a small, graduate art program, located in what is called Haggerty Art Village. Haggerty Art Village is separated by the rest of campus by a wooded grove, and the social atmosphere around the village is considerably different from the rest of the university. One notable feature of the graduate art program is that it provides all accepted graduates a full tuition scholarship, allowing them to study for 3 years and receive both their M.A. and M.F.A. degrees.

Offerings
Haggerty Art Village itself features printmaking (all forms, plus papermaking and letterpress studios), painting, sculpture (well-equipped and spacious woodworking and metalworking studios), and ceramics facilities, though graduate students are not bound to a single medium, and receive their degree as a broader "art" classification (despite this, students are required to choose an adviser, based on which medium they might employ the most). There is also a Mac lab for digital photography and web design seminars. The program is small and intimate, and allows students to exhibit work both on and off campus. U.D. M.F.A. candidates typically go on to successful artistic careers nation-wide, and students come from a variety of backgrounds (there have also been numerous international students). Each student receives a private studio space in a collective studio environment. At this time, there are 16 graduate art students, indicative of the competitive nature of the acceptance process. In addition to flexible studio art courses and independent studio work, graduate art students are required to fulfill numerous art seminar credits, as well as take four art history courses throughout their time at U.D. (modern and contemporary art, plus two others; many students choose to create their own independent coursework). Because the U.D. art faculty are linked to the Dallas - Ft. Worth arts community, there are often graduate field trips to various Dallas - Ft. Worth art institutions, such as the Nasher Sculpture Center, the Dallas Museum of Art, the Modern in Ft. Worth, and several others.[citation needed]

Faculty Though students choose an adviser, most students are close to all of the professors. It is customary for them to invite each of the faculty to their studio for a one-on-one critique at least once a semester.[citation needed]

Galleries
Haggerty Art Village features the "Upper Gallery", which can be merged for one, large exhibition, or separated into two distinct exhibitions. The Upper Gallery is fully equipped with track lighting and movable walls. Many students show in the Upper Gallery for their M.A. on-campus exhibition. In addition to the Upper Gallery, there is a small studio space gallery, which usually shows group exhibitions featuring recent graduate work. The art history building features the Haggerty Art Gallery, which hosts an eclectic array of exhibits, featuring works by artists from around the United States and the rest of the world. There are other places outside of the Art Village to show work: Gorman Lecture Center Foyer is commonly used, as is the Braniff Lounge (called "the fishbowl" by students for its many windows and natural light).[citation needed]

Matrix Program

The Matrix Program invites visiting artists from around the country. It allows students to print an edition of that artist's work. Artists have included Endi E. Poskovic. Students who participate in printing the edition typically receive a finished, numbered print to add to their personal print collection. Matrix donors feature several citizens of the Dallas Metroplex community appreciative of the arts. For their donations, they receive a print by every other Matrix artist (Matrix artists are divided into "small edition" and "large edition" semesters; donors receive "large edition" prints). The program also features a student-curated exhibition of the artists' work, complete with an opening reception and an artist demo session.

Vandalism and Controversy
Graduate art students are required to have their first master's showing on campus. During 2011 and 2012 M.A. exhibitions on campus, there have been reports of vandalism and even theft.[citation needed] While undergraduate students were once required to take several hours of art or art appreciation, that requirement has been waived. A semester in Rome (viewing classical art) is substituted. Currently, graduate art students and faculty are attempting to bring back an art appreciation requirement.[citation needed]

Graduate School of Management [edit]

The University of Dallas Graduate School of Management offers a part-time MBA program for working professionals, a Master of Science program, an Early Career MBA, an Experienced Professional MBA, Graduate Certificates, graduate preparatory programs, and professional development courses.

School of Ministry [edit]

The University of Dallas School of Ministry offers masters degrees in Theological Studies (MTS), Religious Education (MRE), Catholic School Leadership (MCSL), Catholic School Teaching (MCST), and Pastoral Ministry (MPM). Classes are offered onsite during weeknights and online. The University of Dallas School of Ministry also is one of the few Catholic universities in the US that offer a comprehensive, four-year Catholic Biblical School (CBS) certification program. This program, which covers every book of the bible, is offered onsite and online in both English and Spanish. The CBS is the largest program of its kind among all Catholic universities in the U.S. based on 2007 enrollment numbers.

Lectureships [edit]

The Aquinas Lectureship: The Aquinas lecture series, begun in 1983, is an annual event sponsored by the Department of Philosophy in which notable philosophers address contemporary topics in the spirit of Thomas Aquinas.

The John Paul II Theology Lectureship: In 2007, the Theology department announced that a donor had endowed a new lectureship to be named in honor of the late Pope John Paul II.

The Landregan Lectureship:[41] In 1999, the Institute for Religious and Pastoral Studies, which grew into becoming the School of Ministry, established an annual lecture in honor of Steven T. Landregan for his distinguished service to the Catholic Church in North Texas.

The Eugene McDermott Lectureship: In 1974, the university established the Eugene McDermott Lectureship, an endowed lecture series created in honor of Eugene McDermott, the late scientist, businessman, civic leader, and philanthropist.
