Our Tower The Next 100 Years
We are embarking on a once-in-a-lifetime venture to restore, revitalize and reimagine the Tower for Longhorns today and for generations to come.
Since its inception in 1937, the UT Tower has stood as a symbol of the bold ambition, academic excellence and extraordinary achievement found only at The University of Texas at Austin.
