School Description
Provided by University of DallasThe University of Dallas is dedicated to the pursuit of wisdom, of truth, and of virtue as the proper and primary ends of education. The University seeks to educate its students so they may develop the intellectual and moral virtues, prepare themselves for life and work in a problematic and changing world, and become leaders able to act responsibly for their own good and for the good of their family, community, country, and church.
The University of Dallas is a Catholic institution that seeks to educate its students to develop the intellectual and moral virtues, to prepare themselves for life and work, and to become leaders in the community. Through intensive teaching, interactive discourse, and critical analysis, the university pursues truth, virtue, and wisdom in the liberal arts and professional studies.
In 1956, the University of Dallas was founded on freedom, faith and the classical curriculum of the great European universities. Today, 50 years later, we still hold true to those core values that reflect our commitment to Catholic values and to maintaining the highest academic standards.
University of Dallas
From Wikipedia, The Free EncyclopediaThe University of Dallas is a private Catholic university located in Irving, Texas. It is well known for its Core Curriculum, a series of required classes based in the Western Tradition. The University of Dallas Rome Program is regarded as one of finest study-abroad programs for American students. George Weigel, author of the bestselling biography of John Paul II, has consistently called UD the best Catholic univeristy in America.
University Leadership
Grand Chancellor of the University
Bishop Kevin J. Farrell of the Diocese of Dallas currently serves as the Chancellor of the University. Another Roman Catholic bishop, Kevin Vann of the Diocese of Fort Worth, also serves on the board of trustees. According to the bylaws of the University, the Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Dallas is an ex officio voting member of the governing body of the University. The office of Chancellor, being a position occupied only by a member of the Roman Catholic episcopate per the constitution of the University, is an unpaid position. The Chancellor regularly attends commencement ceremonies and typically offers a baccalaureate Mass on behalf of the graduates.
President
F. Kenneth Brasted, the first president, served until 1959; the second, Robert J. Morris, from 1960 to 1962; and the third, Donald A. Cowan, from 1962 until 1977. In 1976, Bryan F. Smith was appointed Chancellor to assist Dr. Cowan until John R. Sommerfeldt was appointed in 1978. Dr. Sommerfeldt returned to full-time teaching in 1980. During the search process, Dr. Svetozar Pejovich was acting president. From July 1981 to December 1995 Dr. Robert F. Sasseen served as the fifth president. Monsignor Milam J. Joseph served as the sixth president from October 1996 through December of 2003. Robert Galecke, senior vice-president for Finance and Administration, was interim president until July 2004 when Dr. Francis Lazarus took office as the seventh president. In April of 2009, Lazarus announced his retirement effective December 31, 2009. He will be on sabbatical starting in September, 2009. Robert Galecke will once again serve as interim president, assisted by provost Dr. J. William Berry, who is to assume the title of "interim chancellor." (Currently, the chancellor of the university is the bishop of Dallas, Kevin Farrell.) A national search for a new president will be conducted in the coming months.
Board of Trustees
The University of Dallas is also governed by a board of trustees. The size of the board has varied from year to year and includes prominent business people (i.e. men and women) as well as philathropists. Most recently, the Board of Trustees elected five new members. They are:
- John T. Cody, Jr. - retired president and COO of JCPenney
- David S. Gruber - president of MetroAmerican Developers, LLC
- Joseph C. Murphy – retired businessman from PricewaterhouseCoopers
- Webb M. Sowden, Jr. – former partner of Lehman Brothers
- Rick Stark - director of the law firm Kane Russell Coleman & Logan

Question: Has anyone heard of University of Dallas?Is it a good school. How about compared to University of Portland.12 months ago
Best AnswerUniversity of Dallas is a great school for education. It's a small school though so not many have heard of it. I've had nothing but good experiences there. Alumni score UD higher than most other schools in Texas. I'd totally recommend them. They compete with SMU, but unlike SMU... UD's classes are taught by Phd professionals... not grad assistants. Their MBA program tops UT-Dallas's program, much more difficult. I don't think they don't get the recognition that they deserve for the most part. Highly underrated. Can't compare it to Portland... I've never been there |
Question: How do employers look at MBA's from University of Dallas?I have an BBA in Finance and a law degree. University of Dallas has a MBA that is geared to lawyers, but I do think I would like to get the traditional MBA. Does anyone have experience with getting a job with a degree from University of Dallas?30 months ago
Best AnswerAn MBA from a State University is an MBA. It is your money - I recomend going with the school where you would enjoy the experiance the most. Sounds like you are doing great - the Jobs will come. Good Luck! ~ Blue |
Question: Which one of these cities is better to live in and go to university?Arlington, Irving or Dallas34 months ago
Best AnswerWhere do you want to go to school? Arlington has UTA, which is a large school with mostly local population that is a division of the UT system. Irving has University of Dallas, a small Catholic private school. Dallas has UT Dallas (a smaller Div III UT campus focused toward math and science) and SMU (Div I) and Dallas Baptist (NAIA). All three have CC campuses too. There are excellent schools in Ft. Worth (TCU and TX Weslyan), in Denton (UNT) and Sherman (Austin College). All are simply a part of a big city where the campus just happens to be there, as opposed to being a "college town" environment. Pick your school, then pick where you should live. |
