University History
The college was originally founded in 1883, and opened its law, liberal arts and natural sciences schools that same year. The main building that held the first classes was demolished in 1934 and a new main building and the UT Tower was constructed on its site. It was from the top of that tower that Charles Whitman shot and killed 14 civilians in August of 1966. The tower was closed after the incident, but was later reopened and can be toured under supervision. -
