Texas Christian University
2800 South University Drive, Fort Worth, TXTel: (817) 257-7000 • Web: Visit this site »
This small liberal arts university enrolls 7,600 graduate and undergraduate students per year. 79 undergraduate majors are available in six schools: education, business, fine arts, arts and science, nursing and divinity. The Horned Frogs compete at the NCAA Division IA-level in football, basketball, baseball, volleyball, and 15 other sports. Banners lining the campus streets proudly display the colors of purple and white.
Randolph and Addison Clark first tried to build a college in Fort Worth in 1869, but briefly moved the site to Thorp Springs in 1873, after leaders felt the students would be corrupted by the notorious cowboy hangout, "Hell's Half Acre." Another move to Waco followed in 1895. After the Waco campus was destroyed by fire, the school made its final move back to Fort Worth in 1910.
