==History==
Spalding University traces its origins to '''Nazareth Academy''', one of the oldest educational institution west of the [[Allegheny Mountains|Alleghenies]].<ref name=":1">{{Cite journal|date=1938|title=1812-1938 Junior College and Academy|journal=The Record}}</ref> Nazareth Academy was founded in 1814 by the [[Sisters of Charity of Nazareth]] and was located in [[Nelson County, Kentucky|Nelson County]] near [[Bardstown, Kentucky]].<ref name=":0University of Kentucky-2001" /> Spalding was named after Mother [[Catherine Spalding]], foundress of the Sisters.<ref name=":0University of Kentucky-2001" />
 
In 1829 the legislature of the [[Commonwealth of Kentucky]] granted the school a charter allowing the school to confer degrees. In 1920, the Sisters opened '''Nazareth College''' in Louisville, Kentucky's first, four-year, Catholic college for women. The former campus renamed as the '''Nazareth Junior College''' at the same time but was eventually folded into the main campus in Louisville in 1940.<ref name=":0University of Kentucky-2001" /> The Louisville and Nazareth campuses merged. In 19691961, theNazareth schoolCollege wassplit renamedinto Spaldingtwo separate schools, '''Nazareth College at Nazareth''' and '''Catherine Spalding College''', before reuniting into one institution in 1969, '''Spalding College'''. Two years later, in 1971, all instructional activity was moved to the Louisville campus. In 1973, Spalding College became co-educational and an independent college in the Catholic tradition open to students of all faiths and backgrounds. In 1984, Spalding College became '''Spalding University'''.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Encyclopedia of Louisville|publisher=University of Kentucky|year=2001|isbn=0813121000|location=Spalding University Library|pages=841–842}}</ref>
 
In 2017 Spalding was censured by the [[American Association of University Professors]] (AAUP) for terminating the employment of a faculty member without, in the AAUP's opinion, respecting faculty rights and academic freedoms.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.aaup.org/report/academic-freedom-and-tenure-spalding-university-kentucky | title=Academic Freedom and Tenure: Spalding University (Kentucky) | date=May 1, 2017 | access-date=January 15, 2024 | archive-date=January 15, 2024 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240115061459/https://www.aaup.org/report/academic-freedom-and-tenure-spalding-university-kentucky | url-status=live }}</ref>

==Location and facilities==
 
[[File:Spalding University administration building.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Administration Building]]
Located in downtown Louisville, Spalding University's urban campus is located between the main business/government district of the city and Old Louisville in an area referred to as the [[SoBro, Louisville|South of Broadway (SoBro) neighborhood]].
 
===851 mansion===
When Spalding University, originally called Nazareth College, opened in 1920, its sole building was the 1871 structure known as the Tompkins-Buchanan-Rankin House. This Italianate building was designed and built by architect Henry Whitestone for the family of Joseph T. Tompkins, a wealthy dry-goods merchant and importer. Later, the Buchanans and Rankins lived here. George C. Buchanan was a distiller who aspired to make the mansion one of the greatest in Louisville, and had it redecorated in 1880.<ref name=":3hcap.artstor.org">{{Cite web|url=http://hcap.artstor.org/cgi-bin/library?a=d&d=p1595#references|title=The Council of Independent Colleges: Historic Campus Architecture Project|website=hcap.artstor.org|access-date=June 1, 2016|archive-date=October 12, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161012021140/http://hcap.artstor.org/cgi-bin/library?a=d&d=p1595#references|url-status=live}}</ref> Although the facade of this Italianate structure has disappeared, the north and south sides of the original building are visible; on the north are three deeply projecting bay windows, and on the south, a two-story loggia. In 1918 the residence was vacant, so the Sisters of Nazareth purchased it for $75,000 as the site of the college they planned to open in Louisville. The fact that this house is one door north of Presentation Academy, also operated by the Sisters, was fortunate.<ref name=":3hcap.artstor.org" />
 
As successive owners occupied the mansion, they added such treasures as a hand-tooled leather ceiling from Florence for one parlor, ebony mantels, and a large hand-carved hat-rack, which Mr. Buchanan purchased at the New Orleans Exposition. The stained glass of the mansion is one of its outstanding features. When Dr. John Coolidge, one-time Director of Harvard's Fogg Art Museum, visited Louisville, he said that Spalding University had the most marvelous display of nineteenth-century stained glass he had ever seen.

In December 1973 the mansion was designated a Kentucky Landmark. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in April 1977.<ref>Jones, Elizabeth F. Tompkins-Buchanan House [Spalding University]. National Register of Historic Places designation report. Washington, DC: U.S. Department of the Interior/National Park Service, 1977.

Today, the Mansion and the complex it forms with its adjoining wings are used primarily for academic and faculty offices and classrooms. In addition to all of the College of Education's programs, the academic units based in the Mansion are business, liberal studies, creative and professional writing, psychology, communication and criminal justice studies.

===Egan Leadership Center===
The Egan Leadership Center is located at 901 South Fourth Street and is named after Spalding's former president, Sister Eileen Egan. Sister Egan served the university for 25 years until her retirement in 1994.<ref name=":0University of Kentucky-2001" /> Containing over {{convert|33000|sqft|m2}} on three floors, the building houses a 125-seat lectorium and the university bookstore on the first level. The second and third floors house student services offices, such as admissions, the office of the registrar, financial aid, advising and student development and campus life.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://catalog.spalding.edu/?id=390|title=Spalding University Catalog|website=catalog.spalding.edu|access-date=June 2, 2016|archive-date=July 1, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160701160428/https://catalog.spalding.edu/?id=390|url-status=live}}</ref>
 
===Teilhard Hall===
Line 70 ⟶ 71:
 
===Morrison Hall===
Originally opened in 1961, the residence formerly known as Our Lady of Louisville Hall only housed 116 students.<ref name=":4Spalding University-2012">{{Cite web|url=https://spalding.edu/student-life/housing-and-residence-life/residence-halls/|title=Residence Halls|date=July 19, 2012|website=Spalding University|language=en-US|access-date=June 1, 2016|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160701124131/https://spalding.edu/student-life/housing-and-residence-life/residence-halls/|archive-date=July 1, 2016}}</ref> An addition was constructed and opened in 1968 bumping the total occupancy to 350 residents. In 1970 the hall was renamed in honor of Sister Charles Mary Morrison who served as registrar and Dean from 1925 to 1950. The building currently houses undergraduate and graduate students in 165 dormitory-style rooms on the north side of the building and shares the south side with the Kentucky College of Art and Design (KyCAD).
 
===Spalding Suites===
The Spalding Suites opened in the fall of 2011 and are designed as apartment-style living for students who choose to live on campus.<ref name=":4Spalding University-2012" /> The Suites were designed for true community living as all residents share a common living room, kitchen and bathroom within their suite.
 
Residents can choose to live in a private bedroom within an 8-person suite, a double bedroom within an 8-person suite or a double bedroom within a 4-person suite. Bedrooms come equipped with a standard twin size bed, desk and chair, cable box, and wardrobe. All bedrooms have windows and blinds and a private lock.
 
===Columbia Gym (and its tiesconnection to Muhammad Ali)===
The building at 824 S. Fourth St. is the home of Spalding's men's and women's basketball and women's volleyball teams, as well as the Golden Eagles' NCAA Division III athletic department. It is also famous as the location where Louisvillian [[Muhammad Ali]] was introduced to boxing as a young boy in 1954. At that time, the boxing gym in the lower level of the building was called the [[Columbia Gym]]. The lower level of the building is now the site of Spalding's student fitness center, lounge and health clinic as well as the athletic department offices. The first level includes the basketball/volleyball courts as well as a 700-seat auditorium. An upper level includes a ballroom that is used for campus events.
 
The building's name was changed from Spalding University Center to Columbia Gym<ref>{{cite web |title=Spalding renames athletic building 'Columbia Gym,' where Ali learned to box |url=https://www.spalding.edu/blog/spalding-renames-building-columbia-gym-muhammad-ali-learned-boxing/ |website=spalding.edu |date=January 17, 2018 |access-date=March 14, 2019 |archive-date=September 27, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210927040812/https://spalding.edu/blog/spalding-renames-building-columbia-gym-muhammad-ali-learned-boxing/ |url-status=live }}</ref> on Jan.January 17, 2018, in honor of Ali's history there. The renaming took place on what would have been Ali's 76th birthday. The introduction of Ali (then Clay) to boxing at Columbia Gym was serendipitous and has become a key part of Ali lore. He stopped by the building for a Louisville Service Club event that was occurring upstairs and offered free snacks. He parked his red Schwinn bicycle out front while he went inside, and when he came back out, it had been stolen. An irate Clay was told out to report the theft to a local police officer named Joe Martin, who was on site because he also happened to run the Columbia Gym and train young boxers. Clay informed Martin that his bike had been stolen and said he planned to beat up the thief. Martin replied to Clay that if he wanted to do that, he better learn to fight first, leading him to try boxing.
 
In honor of Ali and Martin's encounter, a replica red bike now hangs over the front entrance of Columbia Gym.
 
In 1963 Spalding University purchased the former [[Columbia Auditorium]] for use in administrative, recreational, athletic, religious, and cultural events, including public lectures by notable public figures. The auditorium seats about 700 people in its main floor and balcony.<ref name=":5hcap.artstor.org-2">{{Cite web|url=http://hcap.artstor.org/cgi-bin/library?a=d&d=p1596|title=The Council of Independent Colleges: Historic Campus Architecture Project|website=hcap.artstor.org|access-date=June 1, 2016|archive-date=October 12, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161012021107/http://hcap.artstor.org/cgi-bin/library?a=d&d=p1596|url-status=live}}</ref>
 
The building was designed by Louisville architect Thomas J. Nolan in 1925 in a classic style in accordance with Vignola. The external walls are of Bedford limestone with buff brick trim. Interior floors and staircases are marble. The Knights of Columbus commissioned the building to serve as a center for their many activities.<ref name=":5hcap.artstor.org-2" />
 
After the economic depression of 1929, the [[Knights of Columbus]] could not maintain it, so it was used by other groups. During World War II it was a service club for military personnel. It was also used by the [[Louisville Orchestra]] in that group's early days. Perhaps the best-known use of the gymnasium in the building was the housing of Golden Gloves Boxing events during the 1950s. It was there that Cassius Clay (later [[Muhammad Ali]]) trained as a teenager.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.whas11.com/story/news/local/2015/05/07/tracing-a-legend-how-a-smelly-gym-changed-louisville/70986234/ |title=Tracing a legend: How a smelly gym changed Louisville |first=Doug |last=Proffitt |publisher=[[WHAS-TV]] |location=Louisville, KY |date=May 7, 2015 |access-date=May 9, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150518101232/http://www.whas11.com/story/news/local/2015/05/07/tracing-a-legend-how-a-smelly-gym-changed-louisville/70986234/ |archive-date=May 18, 2015 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

===Mascot &and Nicknamenickname===
In 2006, Spalding changed the name of its athletic nickname from Pelicans to Golden Eagles via a selection committee that included student input.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-courier-journal-spalding-university/149513024/|title=Friars end season of U of L men's soccer team|work=[[The Courier-Journal]]|via=[[newspapers.com]]|date=October 26, 2006|page=C2|access-date=June 20, 2024|archive-date=June 20, 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240620193319/https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-courier-journal-spalding-university/149513024/|url-status=live}}</ref> The Golden Eagle was picked because it embodies strength, courage and strong vision. The image of the Pelican, which embodies peace, justice, service and spiritual values, remains on the university's official seal. In 2018, Spalding unveiled its first official Golden Eagle mascot, a blue-and-gold bird named Ollie, as selected by a campus-wide vote.
