  • Chapter One – the Founding of Polytechnic College 1890
    Chapter One – The Founding of Polytechnic College 1890 In August 1890, Reverend Milton Koger Little bounced around in his buggy examining three tracks offered to Fort Worth Methodists for a new regional college. The Methodist Episcopal Church South Northwest Texas Conference pastors and congregants saw the growth of the city to twenty-thousand in that year’s census as an opportunity to educate nearby city youth and those on ranches near and far. Interested Methodists had offered three tracks: a large one in Arlington Heights, a smaller one on the south side of downtown, and fifty acres four miles east of Fort Worth. On the 24th, hot as only Texas can be at the end of summer, Little, pastor of Missouri Avenue Church, climbed down from his buggy and drove a stake in the middle of the tract on a hill over a hundred feet above the Trinity River to the north. Early Fort Worth settlers Arch Hall and his brother W.D. Hall, along with their nephew, George Tandy, had offered the site for the college. The North Texas contingent proposed the new college at the conference’s November meeting at the fifth-day’s afternoon session in Abilene where it was unanimously approved to open a Methodist institute of learning in young, but burgeoning, Fort Worth.

Though New York City is undoubtedly accepted as the center of our cultural efforts, the entire country is becoming more and more aware of its own potentialities. "Texas is big---bigger than any European nation except Russia ---and whether New York knows it or not, that commonwealth and the other states of the Southwest and the Far West are contributing a vital factor to the nation's art." During World War II, the nation was informed about Texas. Boyce House's especially colorful title, Texas Brags, made it- self known from London to Tokyo. Texas is surprising even native Texans who already admit the grandeur of their state.
