Dallas Baptist University

Dallas Baptist University is excited to announce the launch of STAND FIRM. STAND OUT., a $60 million capital campaign benefiting @CarterSchoolDBU! We feel no business leader should have to choose between a candidate with an exceptional education or one with the heart of a servant leader—each is essential, and every single graduate should embody both.
 
The time is now for DBU to take bold steps to become a catalyst for that change. Join us as we equip and empower the next generation of servant leaders to stand firm and stand out.
 
The STAND FIRM. STAND OUT. campaign aims to raise funds for a new academic building to house the Carter School of Business, as well as student scholarships, program development, and faculty support.

Servant leadership is at the heart of DBU’s mission and the foundation of the leaders we strive to develop. The 39th Annual DBU Leadership Gala celebrates individuals who reflect this calling through their leadership, service, and impact on others. We asked our guests to share their perspectives on leadership, the people who have inspired them, and the advice they would pass along to future generations… Here is what they had to say!

Today, we honor the brave men and women who have faithfully served our country, sacrificing so much to protect the freedoms we hold dear.

As we reflect on their courage and service, we invite you to join us in celebrating Veterans Day with a special performance of “The Star-Spangled Banner,” performed by the DBU Grand Chorus at the DBU Leadership Gala.

To all who have served, thank you for your sacrifice, dedication, and commitment to our nation.

Dallas Baptist University hosted its 39th Annual DBU Leadership Gala, celebrating faithful leadership and Christ-centered service to our communities. We were honored to recognize Jay Allison, Chief Executive Officer of Comstock Resources, Inc., for his outstanding leadership, professional achievements, and commitment to Christian education.

Since 1988, Mr. Allison has led Comstock Resources, becoming the longest-tenured public company CEO among active CEOs of NYSE-listed companies. Beyond his remarkable career in the energy industry, his dedication to faith, education, and service has made a lasting impact on countless individuals and communities.

An award-winning executive, accomplished ultramarathon runner, devoted family man, and champion of Christian education, Jay exemplifies a life of leadership, perseverance, and purpose.

Thank you to Mr. Allison and to all who joined us in celebrating the impact of Christ-centered leadership!

An unforgettable night celebrating generosity and leadership!

This evening, we gathered for the 39th Annual DBU Leadership Gala to celebrate an individual whose faithful leadership and service have made a lasting impact on their communities. Through the generosity of those who support this special event, the Leadership Gala helps provide resources for scholarships that prepare DBU students to lead with faith and integrity, serving Christ through their future families, careers, and communities.

It was a special night honoring achievement and the values of faith, character, and service that have been the foundation of DBU since 1898.
