History

Richard Whelan, bishop of the Diocese of Wheeling, lobbied the Society of Jesus in the 19th century to establish a university in the growing city. Over a century later, Whelan's original vision came to fruition. After a donor, Sara Tracy, left her estate to the diocese, it purchased land for a Jesuit college from Mt. De Chantal Visitation Academy.[5]

Wheeling College was founded through a partnership of the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston with the Maryland Province of the Society of Jesus. Ground was broken on November 24, 1953, and the college was officially incorporated on September 25, 1954. It opened to students on September 26, 1955. The establishment of the college required $2.75 million in start-up costs.[6] Overcoming the difficulties of temporary facilities and a faculty of twelve Jesuit priests and four lay professors, the school grew considerably.

For the 1987–1988 school year, the university became Wheeling Jesuit College, and in July 1996, gained university status.[7]

In 2012, university leadership was accused by the federal government of misappropriating NASA grant money received for sponsored programs. Wheeling Jesuit settled with the federal government in 2015, paying $2.3 million in restitution.[8]

In March 2013, the university announced the selection of Fr. James Fleming as its tenth president. Fleming took office effective July 1, 2013.[9] Fleming resigned from the presidency on January 3, 2017.

In 2019, the school eliminated majors in history, theology, philosophy, literature, and engineering and cut 20 of the university's full-time faculty members.[4]


Jesuit heritage

Prior to 2019, the Jesuit community was active in the process of education at Wheeling. In addition, the Jesuits were involved in many other academic works, such as the Appalachian Institute on campus.[10] Members of Wheeling's Jesuit Community reside at Whelan Hall, dedicated in 1955.[11] The Jesuit community and tradition for critical thinking were reflected in the school's curriculum and mission.[12] Wheeling Jesuit University was a member of the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities.[13][14]

In April 2019, as part of a broader restructuring of its academic programs, the university announced the elimination of its programs in theology and philosophy that are key to its identity as a Jesuit institution.[15] The Jesuits in turn decided to end their academic affiliation with the university at the end of the 2018–2019 academic year, while continuing to provide "an ongoing Jesuit presence" through its campus ministry and other programs.[16] Two months later, Monsignor Kevin Quirk resigned from his position as chair of the university's board of trustees after The Washington Post published details from a confidential report alleging that one of his former colleagues was guilty of sexual abuse and financial impropriety.[17] In July, the university formally dropped "Jesuit" from its name and became Wheeling University.

Admissions and rankings

According to the Wheeling University's page on the U-CAN Network,[26] the average high school GPA of the freshman class is 3.5[27] The school is given a selectivity score of 81 out of 100 by the Princeton Review. In 1997, WJU was named as the fourth-best educational value in the southeast, and the 15th-best college in the region.[28] In addition, the school is ranked as the 18th best master's university in the South by U.S. News & World Report.[29] The 2009 Forbes magazine ranking placed WJU as 180 of 600 colleges,[30] a marked improvement from their No. 437 rank in 2008.[31] Forbes ranked the university as the 79th best value in America.[32] The university is ranked among the John Templeton Foundation's Colleges that Encourage Character Development.[33]

Academics

In honor of former professor Fr. Stephen J. Laut, S.J., the university offers the Laut Honors Program. Throughout each school year, members of the program meet to discuss and study material related to that year's theme. At the conclusion of a student's sophomore year, students who have successfully completed the Laut program are invited to join the Ignatian Honors Seminar, a more rigorous program for which only six juniors and six seniors are selected.[34]

Wheeling encourages all students to become actively involved in research in their desired fields. In many fields, seniors are required to complete a thesis or capstone project. In addition, students are actively encouraged to participate in the annual Student Research and Scholarship Symposium, in which students present research done over the past academic year.[35]

Graduate programs

Wheeling University's Center for Professional and Graduate Studies offers five graduate programs, a Master of Business Administration; a Master of Accountancy; a Master of Science in Nursing; a Master of Science in Organizational Leadership; and a Doctor of Physical Therapy.[36]

The Center for Professional and Graduate Studies offers a Bachelor of Arts in Organizational Leadership and Development (BOLD) and a Master of Science in Organizational Leadership (MSOL). These are adult education programs that meet once a week in the evening.

Clifford M. Lewis, S.J. Appalachian Institute

Founded in September 2002, The Appalachian Institute is a pastoral and academic response of Wheeling University to the Appalachian bishops’ pastoral letters, This Land is Home to Me (1975 - on power and powerlessness in Appalachia) and At Home in the Web of Life (1995 - on sustainability). Focused on advocacy, culture, education, research and service through the mode of immersion, as matters of social justice, the Appalachian Institute grounds its mission as a responsible and sustainable partner for the university and the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston invigorating the Catholic social mission as an available instrument of Catholic social teaching, and as a positive force for growing sustainable relationships with community partners locally, nationwide & internationally. The Appalachian Institute at Wheeling University has focused on issues such as Appalachian health, hope, education, economic and energy development, and issues related to coal impoundment, conducting research and producing exhibits regarding these issues.

In 2010, the university hosted the Ignatian Solidarity Network Spring Teach-In, which focused on issues of environmental sustainability and stewardship.[37] In September 2010, the Appalachian Institute held its second annual Appalachian Film Festival.[38]

Institute for the Study of Capitalism and Morality

As a result of a donation from BB&T, in 2006 the university became home to the Institute for the Study of Capitalism and Morality. According to its website, the Institute desires to study the roles of capitalism in a free society. The institute also promotes research and essay competitions, forums and debates, and a lecture series. Lecturers for the 2007–2008 school year included Thomas Woods and Doug Bandow.[39] In 2011, the ISCM welcomed former BB&T CEO John A. Allison IV to campus.[40]

Academic facilities
WU's Donahue Hall

Acker Science Center

Named for the school's former president Rev. Fr. Thomas S. Acker, S.J.,[41] the Acker Science Center was built in 2002. It is home to classrooms and labs.[42]

Donahue Hall

The oldest academic building on campus, Donahue Hall was constructed in 1955 and was renovated in 1988.[43] Donahue holds faculty offices, labs, and classrooms.[44] The hall is connected to the Acker Science Center via the "Acker bridge."

Mount de Chantal Conservatory of Music

The adjacent former girls' academy, Mount de Chantal Visitation Academy ceased operations in August 2010 and the Sisters of the Visitation, who ran the school since its inception, moved to the monastery at Georgetown Visitation Preparatory School in Washington, D.C.[45] Wishing to see the Mount's legacy continued, the sisters gifted a large sum of money to establish and fund a Conservatory of Music at the university.[46]

Thus the Mount de Chantal Conservatory of Music came to be in the lower floor of the university's CET building. The Conservatory features a recital hall, practice rooms, a parlor for students and visitors, and a gallery displaying art, antiques and archival materials from Mount de Chantal Visitation Academy.[47] Each year, one incoming female freshman receives a $10,000 Mount de Chantal Scholarship, renewable annually, through the Mount de Chantal Fine Arts Education Fund.[48]

Main article: Wheeling Cardinals

The Wheeling athletic teams are called the Cardinals. The university is a member of the Division II level of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), primarily competing in the Mountain East Conference (MEC) as a founding member since the 2013–14 academic year.
