Dallas Baptist College. . . the dream . . . began in the little town of Decatur, Texas. Under the name of Northwest Texas Baptist College, DBC opened its first semester in 1893. Because of financial difficulty, the college was renamed Decatur Baptist College in 1897. Today in Decatur, only a ghost of the mighty “Home of the Indians” can be seen on the side of a factory. The Administration Building, which once watched the busy activities of college life, now serves as the Wise County Museum. It was decided in 1963 to relocate the college to a more central location. The world’s oldest junior college was moved, lock, stock, and barrel, to Dallas, Texas, and became our present day Dallas Baptist College. Introduction
