Bryce Jordan was born in Clovis, New Mexico and raised in Abilene, Texas. After one year at Hardin-Simmons University, he served in the U.S. Army Air Corps from 1942 to 1946. After earning both his bachelor's and master's degrees in music from the University of Texas at Austin, Dr. Jordan taught at Hardin-Simmons from 1949 to 1951. He received his Ph.D. in historical musicology, with a minor in comparative literature, from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1956.
In 1954, Dr. Jordan joined the University of Maryland as an assistant professor of music. He advanced to full professorship by 1962, serving as director of graduate studies in music from 1960-63 and as acting department head in 1962. Upon leaving Maryland in 1963, Dr. Jordan became professor and chairman of the Department of Music at the University of Kentucky.
He left Kentucky in 1965 to become chairman of the Department of Music at the University of Texas at Austin. He served as vice president for student affairs at Austin from 1968 to 1970, when he was named president ad interim of the campus. A year later, Dr. Jordan assumed the post of president at the University of Texas at Dallas. During his tenure there, U.T. Dallas expanded its faculty from 50 to 215 and increased student enrollment from 40 to more than 7,000. In July of 1981, he became executive vice chancellor and chief operating officer for academic affairs of The University of Texas System. In that role, he had responsibility for the seven general academic units of the System, reporting directly to the Board of Regents. While with the U.T. System, Dr. Jordan served on several national organizations including the Association of the Upper Level Colleges and Universities (of which he was president), the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (as a member of the Executive Committee), and the National Commission on Higher Education Issues.
He took office as president of Penn State on July 1, 1983.
