Walsh University
Walsh University is a private Catholic university in North Canton, Ohio, United States. Founded in 1960 by the Brothers of Christian Instruction as a liberal arts college, it enrolls approximately 2,100 students as of 2023. The university offers more than 70 undergraduate majors and seven graduate programs, as well as multiple global learning experiences.
The school's namesake is Emmet M. Walsh, Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Youngstown.
Walsh University was founded as LaMennais College in Alfred, Maine, in 1951 by the Brothers of Christian Instruction to educate young men as brothers and teachers. Ferdinand Waldo Demara, who was a member of the BCI under the alias of Brother John Payne, proceeded on his own and got the college chartered by the state. In 1957, Robert A. Francoeur of LaMennais College and William Hughes of Youngstown, Ohio, discussed the Brothers' wish to move LaMennais College from Maine and Walsh invited the Brothers to choose Canton, Ohio, as the new location. Walsh donated $304,000 to the Walsh College project. In 1959, the present location of Walsh University began as 50 acres (20 ha) of farmland on which two buildings were constructed, College Hall and LaMennais Hall, which continues to house the Brothers and international priest-students. The Brothers have played an active role at the institution, serving as faculty during the original years and playing a part in the growth and development of facilities and programs. Several have served as president.
Walsh College became Walsh University in 1993. In 2013, Walsh University joined Division II of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). Walsh previously competed in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) as a member of the American Mideast Conference, while its football team competed in the Mid-States Football Association.
On July 1, 2019, Walsh University announced that Timothy J. Collins was appointed to serve as the university's seventh president.
