Per UT tradition, the campus landmark is bathed in burnt orange lighting from top to bottom when a University of Texas athletics team wins a conference championship.

The University of Texas will head to the 2020 NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships with the women going from Mar. 18-21 in Athens, Georgia, and the men from Mar. 25-28 in Indianapolis, Ind.
