University courses at Walsh University

When the Brothers of Christian Instruction stood in a farmer's field at the corner of North Market and Easton in North Canton, Ohio, they formed a vision - a vision to turn fifty acres of alfalfa into a college campus. This vision lay on a foundation of faith, courage and selfless hard work.

That vision was realized on November 17, 1960, when the seven founding Brothers, comprising the entire faculty, welcomed the incoming class of sixty-seven "gentlemen" to, then, Walsh College. The school was named after the Bishop of the Youngstown Diocese at the time, Most Reverend Emmet Walsh. Br. Farrell (Walsh University's first president) stood on the steps and gave the group a pep talk to the inaugural class.

This wonderful Catholic higher-education resource has continued to grow and prosper for more than 46 years because the Brothers of Christian Instruction, and those who have built on their efforts, had a vision - a vision that built Walsh University.
