the delaware fightin - University of Delaware Athletics

THE UNIVERSITY OF 

DELAWARE

A 

petition by the Presbytery of Lewes, Delaware, expressing the need for educated clergy led 

distinguished Colonial scholar, Rev. Dr. Francis Alison, to open a small school in New London, 

PA, in 1743. 

By 1765, the school had been moved to Newark, where in 1769 it received a charter as the 

Academy of Newark from Thomas and Richard Penn. 

New Ark College opened as a degree-granting institution in 1834 and the Academy was merged 

with it. 

The institution was renamed Delaware College in 1843 and then closed in 1859 because of 

financial problems. Funds provided by the Morrill Land-Grant College Act of 1862 led to its reopening 

in 1870. 

The Women's College was opened in 1914. In 1921, the two colleges – Delaware College and 

the Women's College – merged and became the University of Delaware. 

In the fall of 2010, there were 21,177 students enrolled, including 16,661 undergraduates; 

3,670 graduate students; and 846 enrolled in the Division of Continuing Education. 

The University offers degrees in 137 bachelor’s programs, 117 master's programs, 50 doctoral 

programs and 12 dual graduate programs. In 2009-10, the University awarded 254 associate’s 

degrees, 3,361 bachelor’s degrees, 652 master’s degrees, and 230 doctoral degrees. Honors degrees 

also are available in many departments. 

The distinguished faculty includes internationally known scientists, authors and teachers, over 80 

percent holding the terminal degree. 

Wide-ranging research projects, both basic and applied, are conducted in the University's seven 

Colleges. 

Results of University research efforts have helped to enhance the quality of life in Delaware and 

the region. 

About two-thirds of the funding for sponsored research and public service programs comes from 

federal government grants and contracts and federal appropriations; the balance from state and 

industrial contracts, foundation grants and other sources. 

The University provides an excellent athletic program, with 21 varsity sports, 8 for men and 13 

for women. The University competes on the NCAA Division I level (Football Championship Subdivision 

THE DELAWARE FIGHTIN’ BLUE HENS 

U 

niversity of Delaware's athletic teams is proud to have one of the most unique nicknames 

in all of college athletics – "The Fightin' Blue Hens." 

It is a name they carry with pride that stretches back over 200 years of history of the 

state of Delaware. 

The Blue Hen nickname has been continuously used by all University of Delaware intercollegiate 

teams since 1911. 

On December 9, 1775, the Continental Congress resolved that a military battalion was to be 

raised from the lower three counties along the Delaware River. Thus was born the Delaware 

Regiment, a group of eight companies representing New Castle, Kent and Sussex counties. 

The second company was composed of men from Kent County and was under the command of 

Captain John Caldwell, an avid fan and owner of gamecocks. The militia often amused themselves 

by staging cock fights with these birds which were of a breed known as the Kent County Blue Hen, 

having some blue plumage. 

The renown of these chickens spread rapidly during that time when cock fighting was a popular 

form of amusement, and the "Blue Hens' Chickens" quickly developed a reputation for ferocity and 

fighting success. 

Captain Caldwell's company likewise acquired a considerable reputation for its own fighting 

prowess in engagements with the British at Long Island, White Plains, Trenton, and Princeton, and 

was soon known as "the Blue Hen Chicken" company. 

One version of the story states that Caldwell's company rushed into battle screaming "We're sons 

of the Blue Hen and we're game to the end!" 

Captain Caldwell's company was part of Col. John Haslet's first Delaware regiment that formed 

University of Delaware’s Gore Hall 

for football) through the Colonial Athletic Association, the ECAC, IC4A, and the NCAA. 

The University begins its 11th season as a member of the Colonial Athletic Association this fall, 

competing in football, field hockey, volleyball, men’s’ and women’s soccer, women’s cross country, 

men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s swimming and diving, men’s and women’s 

lacrosse, men’s and women’s tennis, men’s and women’s golf, baseball, softball, and women’s outdoor 

track and field. 

While members of America East in 1991-2001, Delaware captured the Stuart Haskell 

Commissioner’s Cup, signifying overall excellence based on final league standing in all sports, all 10 

years that it competed as a full-time member. 

In addition, an extensive intramural, club sport, and recreational program is available to all 

University students. 

near the outset of the Revolution in 

January, 1776, and in August, 1781, 

remnants of the regiment were still 

battling at Eutaw Springs, SC. 

Although often referred to as "The 

Fighting Delawares," Haslet's regiment also 

won the sobriquet, "The Blue Hen Chickens," 

which has become the nickname for all 

Delawareans. 

The name was formally adopted by the 

Delaware General Assembly in April, 1939 when the 

"Blue Hen Chicken" was named the official state 

bird. 

The University of Delaware’s College of 

Agricultural Sciences maintains a breeding group 

of the Blue Hen Chicken on its campus farm in Newark. 

The UD mascot, YoUDee, made his debut in September 1993. YoUDee stands 6-foot, 8-inches tall 

with a 6-1 wing-span and size 28FF sneakers. Another mascot, the pint-sized Baby YoUDee, was 

introduced during the 1999-2000 athletic season. 

YoUDee is a familiar figure at most University of Delaware athletics events and makes numerous 

appearances on campus and throughout the community each year.

PRESIDENT 

Dr. Patrick T. Harker 

In July 2007, Patrick T. Harker, 

Ph.D., became the 26th president of 

the University of Delaware. He was 

concurrently appointed a professor of 

business administration in the Alfred 

Lerner College of Business and 

Economics, and a professor of civil 

and environmental engineering in the 

College of Engineering. 

One year after assuming the presidency of UD, Harker unveiled 

a comprehensive strategic plan to ensure the University’s place among 

the nation’s top universities. Key priorities in the plan include energy 

and environmental leadership; prolific and intensive research; and 

significant international engagement and collaboration. Under 

Harker’s leadership, UD acquired 272 acres of land that will be 

developed into a science and technology campus drawing on 

University- and partnership-based research. 

Harker came to UD from Penn’s Wharton School, where he had 

served as the dean and the Reliance Professor of Management and 

Private Enterprise since 2000. He held a secondary appointment in 

the Department of Management and the Department of Electrical and 

Systems Engineering in Penn’s School of Engineering and Applied 

Science, and was a senior fellow at the Wharton Financial Institutions 

Center. Harker’s ascendance to dean was preceded by roles as interim 

and deputy dean, and chair of the Operations and Information 

Management Department. 

In the mid-‘90s, Harker served as chair of Penn’s Department of 

Systems Engineering in the School of Engineering and Applied Science. 

Earlier that decade, he became the youngest faculty member in 

Wharton’s history to be awarded an endowed professorship. 

Harker has published or edited nine books and more than 100 

professional articles and, in 2004, he was named an ISI Highly Cited 

Researcher. He is most recently engaged in the analysis of the 

operations and economics of the service sector. 

In 1981, Harker received his bachelor of science in engineering 

and master of science in engineering from the University of 

Pennsylvania. In 1983, he earned a master’s degree in economics and 

a doctorate in civil and urban engineering, again from the University 

of Pennsylvania. 

He is married to the former Emily Saaty, and they have three 

children: Thomas, Michael and Meghan.

Muir earned a bachelor’s degree in organizational behavior and 

management from Brown University in 1990 and a master’s in sports 

administration from Ohio University in 1992. 

In January, 2010, Muir was appointed by the NCAA to a
