ANNOUNCING NAME CHANGE TO WILLIAMSON UNIVERSITY
We are thrilled to announce an historic milestone in our nearly 30‑year journey—we are officially enhancing our name to Williamson University!
This transformation reflects our vision and commitment to serving students with distinction in a rapidly evolving higher education landscape.
Williamson University signals our determination to meet the needs of today’s learners with credibility and conviction.
President Dr. Roger Huston described the new name as both deeply meaningful and strategically essential:
“We are stepping onto a path filled with promise. Williamson University will be a place where students encounter truth, pursue excellence, discover their calling, and build lives of meaning that glorify God. This is more than a name change; it is a declaration of our evolution as we continue to make disciples and build our academic ecosystem. I could not be more excited for what comes next,” said Dr. Huston.
The transition to Williamson University marks a defining moment, positioning the institution for deeper community partnerships and expanded thought leadership and influence.
The decision follows extensive research, national trend analysis, and conversations with faculty and staff, corporate and church partners, community leaders, and marketing experts.
Across every constituency, the feedback was unanimous.
Transitioning to a university strengthens the institution’s brand and reputation, increases its ability to attract learners, and more closely aligns with student expectations.
While our name is changing, our mission to equip students to impact their communities through Christ‑centered education remains steadfast.
“We have always been a place where students are known, valued, and equipped for purpose. Becoming Williamson University honors our past while boldly embracing our future. We are moving forward with clarity and confidence,” said Dr. Huston.
We invite you to pray about and explore how you can partner with us to sustain this exciting momentum as we expand our impact to grow the Kingdom.
