## History

Gold Star Memorial Building (School of Religion, Honors College, School of Theater ), an Oklahoma landmark

### Early history

Postcard of Fort Worth University, 1908

Oklahoma City University began as Epworth University, a project by local developer Anton Classen, who sought to begin a Methodist university in conjunction with other development projects. Construction began in 1902 and the school opened in 1904, three years before statehood, with an enrollment of 100 students.[7] Anton Classen was heavily involved with development of early Oklahoma City and advanced the idea of a Methodist university in Oklahoma and helped spark the ideas of the Methodist Church to establish a Methodist university in Oklahoma. Construction began in 1902 and classes started in 1904 with enrollment growing by almost 100 students during that first year.[7]

Epworth closed in 1911 after the school ran into financial difficulties.[7] The church then formed Methodist University of Oklahoma in Guthrie, Oklahoma, which also absorbed a Methodist college in Texas, Fort Worth University.[8] Eventually, the school's trustees developed a plan to close the school in Guthrie and reopen in Oklahoma City.[7] The school opened in Oklahoma City as Oklahoma City College in 1919, bolstered by funding from Methodist congregations.[7] The college experienced rapid growth and changed its name to Oklahoma City University in 1924.[7] Despite the success and growth of the university in the 1920s, OCU again fell on hard times during the Great Depression.[7]

### Post-war era

Dr. Cluster Smith became president of Oklahoma City University after the Great Depression. When the United States entered World War II, the school faced new challenges, including mounting debt and a need for new facilities.[7] Enrollment dipped during the war, as men left campus to enlist in the military. By 1942, the student body was 75 percent female. This created a shortage of players and funds causing many of the athletic programs, such as the football team, to end operations.[7] After the war,m enrollment increased dramatically and the university began a period of rapid development through the remainder of the 1940s.[7] In the 1950s, OCU received accreditation from the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools.[7] The university then took control of the Oklahoma City College of Law and began a partnership with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to elevate the academics and the quality of education.[7] The Bishop W. Angie Smith Chapel was dedicated in 1968 as part of a plan to expand OCU's spiritual life.

In the mid-1970s, after nearly 25 years of steady growth, the university again fell on hard times. In 1976 United Methodist Bishop Paul Milhouse discussed the school's issues to the Annual Conference of Oklahoma United Methodist churches in Tulsa.[7] After requesting that people direct their prayers and pledges to the university, by 1980 the Methodist Church had raised more than $3 million.[7] Jerald Walker, an OCU alumnus, became president in 1979 and continued the university's growth stemming from the financial support from the Church. During his tenure as president facilities were improved, new academic programs were started and enrollment increased again. In 1981 it was announced that the university was out of debt and turned a surplus for the first time since 1975.[7] The university added the School of Religion and the nursing program during the 1980s.

### Recent history

In the 1990s, the university upgraded and renovated campus facilities. Stephen Jennings became president in 1998 and began focusing on the university's centennial celebration and position the university for the future. Under Jennings, OCU team names were changed from the Chiefs to the Stars and the university expanded student life, including the Distinguished Speakers Series.[7] Tom McDaniel became president in 2001 and altered the look of the OCU campus from an influx of donations. New additions to the campus included The Ann Lacy Visitor and Admissions Center, the Norick Art Center, the Edith Kinney Gaylord Center, the Wanda L. Bass School of Music Center, Meinders School of Business, and a new residence hall.[7] Robert Harlan Henry, chief judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit, became the university's 17th president in July 2010, succeeding Tom McDaniel.[9] During Henry's tenure, the university has moved the OCU School of Law to an historic location in downtown Oklahoma City, renovated several academic facilities, and launched a Physician Assistant program. The 18th president of Oklahoma City University was Martha Burger, who served from 2018 to 2021. She was succeeded on by Kenneth R. Evans, who had previously served as president of Lamar University.

### Historic designation

The Administration Building, included in the historic district

On December 19, 1978, part of the university campus was listed as a historic district on the National Register of Historic Places.[5][10] The district comprises the Administration Building, the Fine Arts Building, and the Goldstar Building.[11] It was nominated for its statewide significance in education and in the Methodist community.[12]

## Campus

The 104-acre (0.42 km2) campus lies in the Uptown area of central Oklahoma City north of downtown and immediately west of the Asia District, just a few miles due west of the Oklahoma State Capitol building on NW 23rd Street. Other notable districts nearby include the Plaza District, the Paseo Arts District, and the LGBT district.

Prominent campus buildings include the Gold Star Memorial Building (School of Religion, Honors College, School of Theater ), Clara Jones Administration Building, Bishop W. Angie Smith Chapel, Sarkeys Science and Mathematics Center, Edith Kinney Gaylord Center (housing the Ann Lacy School of American Dance and Entertainment), Kirkpatrick Fine Arts Building, Dulaney-Browne Library, McDaniel University Center, Meinders School of Business and Henry K. Freede Wellness and Activity Center. The 38 million dollar state-of-the-art 113,000 sq ft (10,500 m2) Wanda L. Bass Music Center was opened in April 2006.[13] OCU opened a 52,000 sq ft (4,800 m2) addition to the Kramer School of Nursing in January 2011.[14] The university purchased the historic Central High School building in downtown Oklahoma City in 2012 where the School of Law is now located.

The Kerr-McGee Centennial Plaza on the southeast corner of the campus was constructed in 2004 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of OCU.[15] The plaza features bronze statues honoring OCU's three Miss America pageant winners.[15] In the first decade of the 21st century, OCU completed more than $100 million in new campus construction.

### Housing

Housing options on the campus of Oklahoma City University include dormitories, the Greek system for men, and on-campus apartments.

Oklahoma United Methodist Hall (formerly Centennial Hall) is a coed facility for freshmen and upper-class students, and includes an underground parking structure.[16] Banning Hall provides coed housing for freshmen and upper-class honors students. Walker Hall, OCU's only high-rise dorm at seven stories, offers coed housing for freshmen. Draper Hall is a coed dorm for upperclassman and freshmen overflow, featuring suite style rooms.

A number of students live in the two fraternity houses located just off-campus.

The university is a member of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA), primarily competing in the Sooner Athletic Conference (SAC) for most of its sports since the 1986–87 academic year. The Stars previously competed at the NCAA Division I ranks, primarily competing in the Midwestern City Conference (MCC; now known as the Horizon League) from 1979–80 to 1984–85; and in the D-I Trans America Athletic Conference (TAAC; now known as the Atlantic Sun Conference) during the 1978–79 school year.
