History

Gold Star Memorial Building (Law Library), an Oklahoma landmark

Early history

Oklahoma City University began as Epworth University by local developer Anton Classen in the early 1900s. Classen was looking to begin a Methodist university on conjunction with other development projects he worked on. Construction of the school began in 1902 and it opened in 1904 with 100 students.[3] 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.[3]

Epworth closed in 1911 after the school ran into financial difficulties.[3] At the same time the church formed Oklahoma Methodist University in Guthrie, Oklahoma. After a few year the school's trustees developed a plan to close the school in Guthrie and relocate to Oklahoma City.[3] The school opened in Oklahoma City as Oklahoma City College in 1922 from funding from the Methodist congregations, and some faculty from the defunct Fort Worth University.[3] After the college opened it experienced rapid growth and changed its name to Oklahoma City University in 1924.[3] Despite the success and growth of the university in the 1920s, OCU again fell on hard time during the Great Depression.[3]

Post war era

Dr. Cluster Smith became president of Oklahoma City University after the Great Depression. At the same time the United States entered World War II creating new challenges for the university, especially the university's mounting debt and need for new facilities.[3] The War created a decline in the student body, especially in males who left school 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.[3] Following the war enrollment increased dramatically and the university began a period of rapid development through the remainder of the 1940s.[3] In the 1950s OCU received accreditation from the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools.[3] 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.[3] 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 Methodist Bishop Paul Milhouse discussed the school's issues to the Annual Conference of Oklahoma Methodist churches in Tulsa.[3] After requesting that people direct their prayers and pledges to the University by 1980 the Methodist Church had raised more than $3 million.[3] 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 profit for the first time since 1975.[3] 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 the athletic name was changed from the Chiefs to the Stars and the university expanded student life, including the Distinguished Speakers Series.[3] Tom McDaniel became president in 2001 and drastically 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, Meinders School of Business, and a new residence hall.[3] 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.[4]
