Originally called the “University of Christ’s Love” by its founder, Hardin-Simmons University strives to be a place where Christ’s love is glorified. Grounded in a belief that we are all made in the image of God, our faculty and staff at Hardin-Simmons are focused on helping each student find God’s plan in their lives.  

The founder of Hardin-Simmons University, James B. Simmons, had two questions that he asked himself and believed our students should ask themselves. 1. “What is the greatest thought that has ever occupied your mind?" 2. "What is your duty towards fulfilling it?” At HSU, we believe that everyone has a God-sized dream within them. The faculty and staff here will help you discover your dream and duty to fulfill it. We are passionate about breaking down barriers to truly change the world!

Located in Abilene, Texas, Hardin-Simmons embraces both the old and the new throughout its growing campus. Familiar red brick buildings and shade-providing pecan trees express the heritage of our university, while groundbreaking ceremonies are becoming a frequent occurrence for new legacies. New buildings include a new student fitness center, new apartment complexes, a new Physical Therapy building, and a renovated Physician Assistant building.
