The University of Dallas is a private Catholic university in Irving, Texas. Established in 1956, it is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.[14]
The university comprises three academic units: the Braniff Graduate School of Liberal Arts, the Constantin College of Liberal Arts, and the Satish & Yasmin Gupta College of Business.[15] Dallas offers several master's degree programs and a doctoral degree program with three concentrations.[16] As of 2017, there are 136 full-time faculty and 102 part-time faculty.[8]
History
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.[17][18] 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.[19] 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.[20] The university opened with an initial class of ninety-six students in 1956.[20]
The university's character was intended to be unlike other Catholic universities in Texas. Bishop Thomas Gorman had plans to shape it in the manner of Louvain, the Catholic university in Belgium where he himself had studied and which considered an elite institution in his day.[21]
The Sisters of Saint Mary of Namur, Cistercian monks, Franciscan friars, and several lay professors formed the university's 1956 faculty.[20] The Franciscans departed three years later; professors 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[22] and Cistercian Preparatory School in 1962,[23] which are both adjacent to campus. The School Sisters of Notre Dame arrived in 1962 and opened a school for children with learning difficulties in 1963[24] and a motherhouse for the Dallas Province in 1964,[25] both on campus. The sisters moved the school to Dallas in 1985 and closed the motherhouse in 1987. The faculty is now almost exclusively lay.
Braniff Graduate School, the Graduate School of Management, and programs in art and English all 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 Gupta Graduate School of Management and undergraduate business, opened in 2003.
Since the first class entered in 1960, university graduates have won 39 Fulbright awards.[26][27]
Accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools came in 1963 and has been reaffirmed regularly.[14] In 1989, it was the youngest institution of higher education ever to be awarded a Phi Beta Kappa chapter.[28]
In 2013, the Princeton Review ranked the university as the 15th most LGBT-unfriendly school in the United States.[29] Two years later, the university applied for an exception to Title IX allowing it to discriminate based on gender identity for religious reasons. The university "cannot encourage individuals to live in conflict with Catholic principles" according to president Thomas Keefe. In 2016, the organization Campus Pride ranked the college among the worst schools in Texas for LGBT students.[30]
President Thomas W. Keefe was hired from Benedictine University to serve as president.[31] Like his predecessors, he quickly ran into controversy.[32][33][34] In 2017, Keefe's leadership was strongly and publicly challenged by over half the faculty and thousands of alumni members of an independent alumni group called UD Alumni for Liberal Education.[35][36][37][34] Their complaint was over a proposal to add a new college within the university that it was believed would have low standards.[38] After intense controversy and multiple efforts by trustees, on Good Friday of 2018, after Keefe's extended and unexplained absence from work, the university's trustees voted to fire him, effective at the end of the academic year.[39][37]
Seal
The University seal is emblematic of the ideals to which the University is dedicated. The outer circle bears reference to the Book of Zechariah 8:19, which freely translates to "Through Truth, Seek Ye Justice". Incased in the seal is a Triquetra interwoven with a triangle as a double symbol of the Holy Trinity. As well as a Fleur-de-lis, which symbolizes the Cistercians. It also includes two crusader shields which depict the (Left) Lone Star of Texas and (Right) the torch of liberty and learning. The wavy lines near the bottom represent the Trinity River (Texas)[40]
The Role of the Cistercians
Bishop Thomas Gorman wrote as early as 1954 to Fr. Anselm Nagy to ask the displaced Hungarian Cistercian fathers from the Monastery of Zirc to assist in founding the university. On the first day of classes in September 1956, nine Cistercian fathers, at that point half of the entire faculty, were employed at the new university.[41] The history of UD is connected to both those founding Cistercian priests and many more Hungarians who taught there in the first decades.[42]
Guadalupe art print scandal
On February 14, 2008, an image of Our Lady of Guadalupe was removed without permission from the Upper Gallery of the Haggerty Art Village. The image, entitled "Saint or Sinner," was on loan from Murray State University in Kentucky as part of a larger exhibit of works by Murray State students.[43][44] The piece reportedly portrayed the Virgin Mary as a stripper. After students voiced criticism, signs were put up to warn visitors that "some items [on display] might be considered offensive."[43][44] The university's president, Frank Lazarus, publicly condemned the theft. Reaction to Lazarus' statement prompted heated campus discussion, was discussed online on Catholic blogs and in conservative tabloids.[45]
Governance and leadership
As of 2022, the president is Jonathan J. Sanford, an American philosopher who previously served as the school's provost.
The University of Dallas is governed by a board of trustees. According to the university's by-laws, the Bishop of Dallas is an ex-officio voting member.
Edward Burns, Bishop of the Diocese of Dallas, currently serves as the chancellor.[46] The office, held by a Catholic bishop per the constitution of the university, is an unpaid, honorary position.
Previous chancellors include:
- Thomas Kiely Gorman (1954–1969)
- Thomas Ambrose Tschoepe (1969–1990)
- Charles Victor Grahmann (1990–2007)
- Kevin J. Farrell (2008–2016)

Campus
The university is located in Irving, Texas, on a 744-acre (301 hectare) campus in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex.[11] The Las Colinas development is nearby. It is 10 miles (16 km) from downtown Dallas. The campus consists mostly of mid-century modernist, earth-toned brick buildings set amidst the native Texas landscape. Several of these buildings were designed by the well-known Texas architect O'Neil Ford, dubbed the Godfather of Texas modernism.[49][50] The mall is the center of campus, with the 187.5 feet tall (57.15 meters) Braniff Memorial Tower as its focal point.
The Princeton Review claimed the University of Dallas had the fourth-least beautiful campus among the America's top colleges and universities.[51] Travel + Leisure's October 2013 issue lists it as one of America's ugliest college campuses, citing its "low-profile, boxy architecture that bears uncanny resemblance to a public car park," but noting that a recent $12 million donation from alumni Satish and Yasmin Gupta would bring new campus construction.[52]
A Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) Orange Line light-rail station opened near campus on July 30, 2012.[53]
The campus is home to the Orpheion Theatre, a small Greek-style performance space built into a hillside in 2003.

Academics
Core curriculum and traditional liberal education
The university has resisted a focus on "trades and job training" and pursued the traditional ideas of a liberal arts education according to the model described by John Henry Newman in The Idea of a University. The university's "Core Curriculum" is a collection of approximately twenty courses (two years) of common study covering philosophy, theology, history, literature, politics, economics, mathematics, science, art, and a foreign language.[56] The curriculum not only includes a slate of required courses, but includes specific standardized texts, which permit professors to assume a common body of knowledge and speak across disciplines.[57] Classes in these core subjects typically have an average class size of 16 students to permit frequent discussion.[56] Dallas is one of 25 schools graded "A" by the American Council of Trustees and Alumni for a solid core curriculum.[58]
There is a similar core curriculum for graduate studies in the Braniff Graduate School of Liberal Arts.[59]
Undergraduate
Undergraduate students are enrolled in the Constantin College of Liberal Arts, the Satish & Yasmin Gupta College of Business, or the Ann & Joe O. Neuhoff School of Ministry. The university awards bachelors’ degrees in arts and sciences.
UD offers a five-year dual-degree program in electrical engineering in collaboration with The University of Texas at Arlington.[60]
In 1970, the university started a study-abroad program in which Dallas students, generally sophomores, spend a semester at the university’s campus southeast of Rome in the Alban Hills along the Via Appia Nuova.[61]
Graduate programs
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.
The Satish and Yasmin Gupta College of Business is an AACSB-accredited business school offering a part-time MBA program for working professionals, a Master of Science program, a Doctor of Business Administration (DBA), Graduate Certificates, graduate preparatory programs, and professional development courses.
