Founded in 1818, Saint Louis University is one of the nation’s oldest and most prestigious Catholic institutions. Rooted in Jesuit values and its pioneering history as the first university west of the Mississippi River, SLU offers nearly 13,000 students a rigorous, transformative education of the whole person. At the core of the University’s diverse community of scholars is SLU’s service-focused mission, which challenges and prepares students to make the world a better, more just place.

A highlight of the University's bicentennial year is the 200-Years-In-One Challenge, which invites everyone to contribute volunteer hours to SLU's goal of 1.75 million hours of service — the equivalent of 200 years — all in one year. In addition, special events, lectures, conferences, scholarly initiatives and a wide variety of other activities will mark SLU's bicentennial year.

OUR MISSIONThe mission of Saint Louis University is the pursuit of truth for the greater glory of God and for the service of humanity. The University seeks excellence in the fulfillment of its corporate purposes of teaching, research, health care and service to the community.

As a Catholic, Jesuit university, this pursuit is motivated by the inspiration and values of the Judeo-Christian tradition and is guided by the spiritual and intellectual ideals of the Society of Jesus.

SAINT LOUIS UNIVERSIT Y IS CELEBR ATING 200 YE ARS OF SEEKING TRUTH AND TR ANSFORMING LIVES .

SLU ESTABLISHES THE FIRST MEDICAL SCHOOL WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER. The University would also go on to start the first law school (1843) in the West.

SLU MOVES TO ITS CURRENT LOCATION IN MIDTOWN ST. LOUIS. The whole of the University’s operations is contained in one building, DuBourg Hall.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF SLU

SAINT LOUIS COLLEGE, WHICH WOULD BECOME SAINT LOUIS UNIVERSITY, IS FOUNDED on the banks of the Mississippi River by Bishop Louis William DuBourg as the first institution of higher learning west of the Mississippi.

THE SCHOOL OF LAW ADMITS FIVE FEMALE STUDENTS — at a time when most elite law schools are still closed to women.

Committed to diversity, SLU is an inclusive community that welcomes all people, regardless of race, ethnicity, national origin, age, disability, faith, sexual orientation, gender, class or ideology.

The University is actively working to enhance diversity on campus and engagement with the external community through a variety of initiatives led by SLU’s vice president for diversity and community engagement, Jonathan Smith, Ph.D.

These actions include ongoing, campus-wide conversations about race and inclusion; formal commitments to improving access and success for minority students; and increased efforts to address systemic poverty and inequity in St. Louis.

WHAT’S A BILLIKEN?

The Billiken is a symbol of good luck that became a national craze in the early 1900s. In 1908, art teacher Florence Pretz received a patent for her version of the mythical figure. Later, the Billiken Co. of Chicago adopted the likeness, giving the Billiken its name. Manufactured as a bank and statuette, the Billiken reached its peak of popularity in 1911.

Its association with SLU can be traced back to around 1910, when local sportswriters thought that SLU football coach John Bender bore a striking resemblance to the impish creature. One writer drew a cartoon of Bender as a Billiken, posted it in a drugstore window and dubbed the football team “Bender’s Billikens.” The public took up the moniker, and it soon became the official nickname of all SLU teams.
