History

Canisius has its roots in the Jesuit community that arose from disputed ownership of St. Louis Church in Buffalo in 1851.^[5][6] Rev. Lucas Caveng, a German Jesuit, along with 19 families from St. Louis Church, founded St. Michael's Church on Washington St.^[6] The college followed, primarily for serving sons of German immigrants, along with the high school in 1870, first at 434 Ellicott St. and next to St. Michael's.^[7] In 1913 construction of the Old Main building at 2001 Main St. was completed.^[8] The early presidents of the college were German Jesuits.^[9]

During the COVID-19 pandemic in July 2020, President John Hurley and the board of trustees made a decision to lay off a number of tenured faculty, including those in Classics, Chemistry, English, History, Management, Religious Studies and Philosophy. Several majors were eliminated, including Classics, Entrepreneurship, European studies, Fine Arts, Human Services, International Business, Physics, Religious Studies and Urban Studies.^[10][11] Some college faculty, students and members of the community have contested the decision, including two formal votes of no confidence by the college's faculty senate.^[12][13][14] The move also attracted criticism from numerous academic organizations, including the American Historical Association and the Association for Slavic, East European and Eurasian Studies^[15][16] After an almost yearlong investigation, the American Association of University Professors released a report on eight institutions, including Canisius College, that found that "some institutional leaders seem to have taken the COVID-19 crisis as an opportunity to turbocharge the corporate model that has been spreading in higher education over the past few decades, allowing them to close programs and lay off faculty members as expeditiously as if colleges and universities were businesses whose CEOs suddenly decided to stop making widgets or shut down the steelworks".^[17][18] The AAUP recommended that Canisius College be added to its list of sanctioned institutions due to "substantial noncompliance with standards of academic government".^[19] Several affected tenured faculty members also sued the college for violation of contract.^[20]

In 2015 Canisius College was one of more than 90 colleges investigated by the Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights for its handling of sexual assault and harassment complaints.^[21] In 2021, three former female student athletes filed a federal lawsuit in the Western District of New York alleging a hostile environment and that the college "failed to take appropriate action in response to these reports and complaints of sexual harassment, abuse and sexual assault".^[22][23] In a separate federal lawsuit filed in 2022, five former female students alleged that Canisius College ignored sexual misconduct complaints against Professor Michael Noonan and allowed him to retire in 2019 rather than pursuing Title XI complaints against him.^[24] On June 27, 2022, a judge allowed the former athletes’ case to proceed, describing the college’s delayed response to assault allegations as “inexplicable.” ^[25]

In 2021, John Hurley announced he was retiring as president of the college. After a months-long search, Steve Stoute was announced as the next president of Canisius.^[26]

On April 27, 2023, Canisius announced that it had successfully petitioned the New York State Education Department (NYSED) Board of Regents for university designation.^[27] It officially changed its name to Canisius University on August 1, 2023.

Campus

Christ the King Chapel

Christ the King Chapel, designed by Buffalo architect Duane Lyman,^[28] is centrally located to "symbolize its importance".^[29] It was completed in 1951 and has seating for 492.^[28]

Science Hall Parking Ramp

 

Public Safety Booth

 

Carpool section of ramp

The parking ramp originally served the Sears and Roebuck building at 1901 Main St. However, throughout the history of ramp, Canisius students have used it for parking, with Sears advertising in The Griffin student newspaper that parking was free.^[33][34] Acquisition of the property has eliminated parking problems.^[35] The ramp was demolished in 2022. A new green space surface lot is planned to replace it.^[36]

Churchill Academic Tower

The 11-story Churchill Academic Tower was built in 1971, designed by Leroy H. Welch.^[37] It is named for its chief benefactor, Rev. Clinton H. Churchill and his wife Francis.^[38] The Tower is routinely derided but serves as a highly functional space.^[37]

The college is accredited by the Middle States Association Commission on Higher Education, the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education and the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. In fall 2009, Canisius College introduced a new major in Animal Behavior, Ecology, and Conservation.^[46] Other new majors include Creative Writing,^[47] Health and Wellness, and Journalism.^[48] With the George E. Schreiner '43, MD, Pre-Medical Center as an asset,^[49] the college caters strongly to the biological and health science fields and holds close relationships with both the University at Buffalo School of Medicine and the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine.

See also: Canisius Golden Griffins men's basketball and Canisius Golden Griffins men's ice hockey

The college sponsors 20 NCAA Division I athletic teams and is a member of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) as well as the Atlantic Hockey Conference.^[55] Men's sports include baseball, ice hockey, and golf. Women's sports include volleyball and softball. The Golden Griffins compete in the NCAA Division I and are members of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) for most sports, except for men's ice hockey which competes in the Atlantic Hockey Association. In 2013, the men's ice hockey team won its first Atlantic Hockey Championship, earning a bid to the NCAA Tournament.^{[citation needed]} In 2008, Canisius men's lacrosse won the MAAC tournament and earned its first bid to the NCAA Men's Lacrosse Championship tournament.^[56]

The Women's Lacrosse team won MAAC Championships four years in a row (2010-2014). The 2008 Baseball team won its first regular season MAAC championship, with a 41–13 season, and the following year made its first appearance in the MAAC Championship game.^[57] In 2013, the team won the MAAC Championship and received its first bid to the NCAA tournament. The Canisius College softball team won the 2009 Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference tournament for its 3rd consecutive title, marking the team's 11th trip to the NCAA tournament in 15 years.^[58] In its rivalry with Niagara University Canisius won the Canal Cup two of the first three years (2008 and 2009).^[59] Intramural sports are also offered for students, faculty, and staff.

Canisius' mascot is the Golden Griffin. The college adopted the Griffin as a mascot in 1932, after Charles A. Brady ('33) wrote a story in a Canisius publication honoring Buffalo's centennial year as a city. Brady wrote about Jesuit-educated explorer Rene-Robert LaSalle's Le Griffon, which was built in Buffalo. The Griffin was first used on the La Salle medal in 1932 and from there spread to the college newspaper, The Griffin, and sports teams.^{[60][61][62][63]} According to GoGriffs.com, the griffin is a "legendary creature with the body, tail, and back legs of a lion; the head and wings of an eagle; and an eagle's talons as its front feet." It represents values such as courage, boldness, intelligence, and strength befitting students and athletes alike.

The college was also the first home field of the Buffalo All-Americans of the early National Football League. Around 1917 Buffalo manager Barney Lepper signed a lease for the team to play their home games at Canisius College. The All-Americans played games at Canisius before relocating to Bison Stadium in 1924.^{[citation needed]}

Greek life

Canisius College's fraternities and sororities are overseen by the Canisius College Office of Student Life. The three college-approved Greek organizations on campus are the Lambda chapter of the fraternity Sigma Phi Epsilon (SigEp), the sorority Phi Sigma Sigma, and the professional organization Alpha Kappa Psi (AK Psi).^[64] Also there is a Classics Club which fosters interest in the study of ancient Greek and Roman history, language, and culture; it hosts events like readings and discussions of ancient texts, Saturnalia, and alcohol-free toga parties. The club fosters the Jesuit value of a Classical education, as well as cura personalis.^[65]

Media

The student weekly newspaper is The Griffin, which replaced The Canisian in 1933 and continues to print weekly.^[66] The annual Quadrangle magazine contains student writings, artwork, and photographs. Public-access television cable TV broadcasts to Canisius College from its fourth floor studio at Lyons Hall. The WIRE, replacing WCCG, is the college's radio station, which broadcasts over the campus television system and is online through the college website.^[67]
