Dallas Christian College

From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

Dallas Christian College (DCC) is a four-year undergraduate institution affiliated with the Christian Church. Despite its name it is located in the suburb of Farmers Branch, Texas.

History

On 10 May 1949, Vernon Newland met with 40 concerned Texas church leaders to discuss establishing a Bible college in the Dallas area to train men and women for the ministry. Dallas Christian College opened for classes in Downtown Dallas on September 12, 1950. The present campus is located in Farmers Branch, a suburb just north of Dallas. The school has grown much and has trained over two thousand students for the ministry. It is accredited by the Association for Biblical Higher Education.

Athletics

DCC has men’s and women’s basketball and soccer teams and women’s volleyball. They compete in the NCCAA and the ACCA.

Concert Choir

They go on an annual choir tour where they sing at community churches across the country. In 2006 they joined the SMU Meadows Choir to sing at the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center in Dallas.

Quote from the President

Dallas Christian College has been a place where men and women have come to dream about their places in the kingdom...it has been a place where they were actually equipped to fulfill those dreams -President Dustin D. Rubeck
