An Introduction to the Newman Center
T
he St. Philip Neri Newman Center was established in 1946 to serve Roman Catholic students at the University of Tulsa. In 1991 it moved to its present location at 440 S. Florence Avenue.

An active ministry on the TU campus, the Newman Center provides weekly liturgies, as well as, educational, social, and service opportunities for students of all faiths. Students enrolled at other colleges and universities in the Tulsa area are encouraged to participate too.

The Newman Center is a member of the National Catholic Student Coalition and the Catholic Campus Ministry Association. The Newman Center also participates in statewide activities with other Oklahoma campus ministries through state conventions and retreats.
