ALL UT ROTC PROGRAMS IN JEOPARDY: ROTC BUILDING TO BE TORN DOWN THIS FALL WITH NO DEFINITIVE PLANS FOR FUTURE ROTC FACILITIES RAS Hall is scheduled for demolition beginning in September of this year, only six months from now. The College of Liberal Arts will erect a new multi-story building on the RAS property to accommodate the needs of that College, excluding the NROTC and other two ROTC programs. As of this moment, there is no definitive plan for a temporary relocation on campus for the NROTC. There have been discussions, negotiations, some promises made and some, as yet, unfulfilled but no definite plans are in place at this time for the near term relocation of the NROTC. Furthermore, no definitive plans are in place for the long term relocation of the NROTC on campus. Your Board of Directors is considerably concerned about this situation and wants to do what it can to insure that the Unit is timely provided adequate facilities to carry out its mission of educating and commissioning Navy and Marine Corps officers for the defense of our country. The Board wants to do what it can to continue the traditions of excellence established over the last seventy years by our Alumni.

On this date, Senate was recognized as the official voice of students at The University of Texas at Austin in academic affairs. But even before then, leaders of the College Councils had been coming together to discuss academic issues on campus. As early as the 1950's, Council Presidents were joining together to share best practices and to collaborate on university-wide issues. Several such meetings later, the Senior Cabinet was formed, a predecessor of Senate that was the first to formalize the relationships between the various College Councils and provide a student forum dedicated exclusively to the discussion of academic issues. Several name changes and more than a half-century later, the Senate of College Councils is today comprised of twenty College Councils representing a membership, including the councils, agencies, At-Large and Leadership Team members, of over 1,500 students.

  • Future of Education What Longtime UT Supporters Say Is at Stake — and What They’Re Doing About It 1 Message from the President
    Fall/Winter 2012 The Future of Education What longtime UT supporters say is at stake — and what they’re doing about it 1 Message from the President Planned gifts — we also call them “future gifts” or “estate gifts” — represent one of the most important things we do at the University: long-term planning. A planned gift is a bit like planting a tree that will give shade in the future. Regardless of whether it leads to a program now or in the future, it is the type of gift that ensures that The University of Texas at Austin is a first-class university far into the future. We’re always thinking ahead. When we build a building, when we start a program, or when we hire a young faculty member, we are making a commitment long into the future. There will be students ten years from now, twenty years from now, thirty years from now who will be able to come to The University of Texas and look back and say their lives were transformed. They will be able to go out and change the world because of the thoughtfulness and the foresight of a planned gift that somebody in our generation made. We are now two-thirds of the way toward the $3 billion goal of the Campaign for Texas. We’re making great strides toward our goal of becoming the No. 1 public research university in the country, and planned gifts have played a key role. While we should take a moment to celebrate, we have a long way to go.

Part of the Values at Work Series Before the Cap and Gown: Getting the UT Campus Ready for Commencement The University of Texas at Austin has come a long way since its first commencement ceremony. But one thing that hasn’t changed in all the years leading up to the 133rd Spring Commencement is the entire university community’s expectations for maintaining the honor and dignity of the occasion. What does it take to make the campus ready for commencement and to meet those high expectations? To find out, we went behind the scenes with one of the primary departments involved in creating this annual ritual: Facilities Services. 1 | P a g e Before the Cap and Gown: Getting the UT Campus Ready for Commencement Part of the Values at Work Series Planning & Scheduling An event of this size and significance requires a great deal of planning up front. It also requires good communication and collaboration among all the groups involved. This year, the event was held on Saturday evening, May 21, 2016.

To begin, a comprehensive work order was established by Project Management & Construction Services (PMCS) to support University Events, who is responsible for orchestrating the university-wide ceremony. This work order provided the essential details for what was needed, where and when. With that information, Facilities Services teams were assigned accordingly to carry out the necessary tasks.
