UTSA is San Antonio's largest university.

The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) is a state research university in San Antonio, Texas, United States. It is the largest university in San Antonio, the third-largest of the nine academic institutions in the University of Texas System and the eighth-largest in the state of Texas.[8] It is comprised of three campuses with over 747 acres of land and 30,968 students, offering 133 undergraduate, 49 graduate and 22 doctoral programs.[9] In 2012, it was selected by Times Higher Education as one of the best universities in the world under 50 years old.[10]

UTSA serves the San Antonio metropolitan area and the South Texas region through three campuses: the Main Campus, the Downtown Campus in Downtown San Antonio, and the HemisFair Park Campus (Institute of Texan Cultures). The Main Campus, located about 15 miles northwest of Downtown San Antonio, is on 600 acres (2.4 km2), at the intersection of Interstate 10 and Loop 1604 near the northwestern edge of the city of San Antonio, in Bexar County.

History

Sombrilla Plaza, designed by O'Neil Ford

The University of Texas at San Antonio was founded on June 5, 1969 by Governor Preston Smith.[11] In 1970, the University of Texas Board of Regents appointed the University's first president, Arleigh B. Templeton, who served from 1970 to 1972, and received a land donation of 600 acres (2.4 km2) in far northwest San Antonio for the site of UTSA.[12] Architects Ford, Powell and Carson Inc. were assigned to design a master plan for the University.[13] Although UTSA was established in 1970, students temporarily attended class at the Koger Center, which also housed administrative offices until 1975, when construction on the 1604 campus (now the Main Campus) was completed.[8][12] Enrollment during this time numbered 4,433 students.[14] UTSA began with five colleges: Business, Fine and Applied Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, Multidisciplinary Studies and Science and Mathematics.[13]

In 1976 the John Peace Library opened, serving as the administrative headquarters of the university.[15] James W. Wagener, a graduate of Southern Methodist University and former acting-dean of the University of Texas Health Science Center, was selected to be the university's third president in 1978.[15][16] At the end of the decade, enrollment numbered 9,400 undergraduate and graduate students.[14]

Academics

Academic rankings
National
Forbes[17]632 (Overall) 253 (Research universities)
U.S. News & World Report[18]National University (Unranked)

The University of Texas at San Antonio comprises the following colleges:

All programs are fully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, and the UTSA College of Business is accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.

The College of Business is the largest business school in the University of Texas System and is nationally ranked by Princeton Review, BusinessWeek and HispanicBusiness.

The College of Liberal and Fine Arts, which has the highest enrollment at UTSA, ranks second in the UT System for external research funding in arts, humanities and social sciences.

More than 50 percent of Honors College graduates have been accepted into postgraduate universities and medical and professional schools The College of Sciences collaborates with other leading research institutions such as Southwest Research Institute. Since 2005, UTSA and Southwest Research Institute have maintained a joint doctoral program focusing on space physics.

The College of Public Policy's Center for Policy Studies is in the top five certifying institutions in the U.S. for American Humanics, a program that brings together universities, nonprofit organizations and community partners to prepare professionals to lead nonprofit organizations.

The College of Architecture ranks first in the nation in awarding degrees to Hispanic students, according to The Hispanic Outlook in Higher Education magazine.[19]

Research initiatives

In addition to the educational advantages UTSA offers, the school generates more than $1.2 billion in annual business revenue in San Antonio and directly employs more than 5,000 people.[20]

In a 2007 study released by Academic Analytics, UTSA was ranked fifth for faculty scholarly productivity among other large research universities in the state of Texas.[21] It is classified by the Carnegie Foundation as a "High Research Activity" university.[22]

Proposition 4 was passed by Texas voters in November 2009. This piece of legislation named 7 emerging research universities in Texas that could compete for additional state funds in an effort to increase the number of tier 1 institutions in Texas. Factors such as research expenditure, graduate degrees awarded, and scholarly productivity all play a part in which schools receive the most funding.[23]

The school reached a new record of $56.8 million for research expenditures in fiscal year 2011. This represents a five-year increase of 75.8 percent.[24]

UTSA is second in the UT System for research funding in biology, social sciences, arts and humanities, microelectronics and computer technology.[25]

UTSA is San Antonio's only NCAA Division I institution with 16 intercollegiate sports including football, basketball, cross country, golf, indoor track & field, men's baseball, outdoor track and field, tennis, fencing, women's soccer, women’s softball, and women's volleyball. UTSA's main rival in most sports is now the Bobcats of Texas State University-San Marcos; the two schools, separated by about 50 miles (80 km), have been conference rivals since 1991, first in the Southland Conference and then in the Western Athletic Conference (WAC) for the 2012–13 school year only. Starting in 2013, UTSA and Texas State will be in different conferences, with UTSA moving to Conference USA (C-USA) and Texas State to the Sun Belt Conference. UTSA will then be one of four Texas schools in C-USA, along with a fellow newcomer in the North Texas Mean Green and established C-USA programs in the Rice Owls and UTEP Miners.

In September 2007, students passed a referendum to increase funding for the athletic department by doubling the athletics fee over a five-year period. The additional funding allows renovations of existing athletics facilities, increased institutional support of existing intercollegiate sports programs, and an expansion of the athletics program with the addition of a Division I FBS football team, playing at the Alamodome, by 2011. The plan was approved by the University of Texas System board of regents in December 2008.[26]

UTSA will be an official member of the WAC on July 1, 2012; the Roadrunners began their transition to the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) in 2011. One year later, they will leave the WAC for C-USA, and will be full FBS members.

UTSA played its first football game against Northeastern State on September 3, 2011 at the Alamodome. With attendance of 56,743, UTSA set a record for the highest-attended game for an NCAA Division I FCS start-up program.[26]

Spirit and Traditions

Alma mater

The alma mater was created by Alan Craven, former dean and professor of the College of Liberal and Fine Arts. Music was provided by Clarence ("Joe") Stuessy, a retired professor and former chair of the Department of Music.

"Hail UTSA"[27]
From our hills of oak and cedar
To the Alamo,
Voices raised will echo
As, in song, our praises flow.
Hail Alma Mater!
Through the years our loyalty will grow.
The University of Texas
San Antonio.

School Colors, Identity and Mascot

The official colors of UTSA are orange and blue.[7] The colors of the University of Texas System have historically been orange and white. The blue was selected upon the recommendation of the Student Representative Assembly in accordance with Board of Regents' Rules and Regulations, which states "an institution may adopt one additional color to be used in connection with athletic and other activities of the institution."[28]

The roadrunner, a bird representative of the Texas Hill Country and the American Southwest, was voted the UTSA mascot in 1977.[29] "Rowdy the Roadrunner" attends many university functions and games. On March 1, 2008, UTSA Athletics unveiled it new logos during the Homecoming Game against Texas A&M University–Corpus Christi. The athletic markings were changed due to noticeable similarities to the University of Kansas Jayhawk.[30]

Best Fest and Fiesta UTSA

Fiesta UTSA, an annual event held in April, began in 1978.[31] The first Fiesta UTSA was attended by over 1,000 students and included music, a jalapeño eating contest, a watermelon seed spitting contest, a dunk tank, and other activities.[32] Fiesta UTSA features dozens of booths set up under the Sombrilla in a carnival atmosphere. The booths are run by Registered Student Organizations and offer food, drinks and games. The Campus Activities Board sponsors bands and other musicians throughout the day. Fiesta UTSA became the kickoff event for Fiesta San Antonio each spring, having been added to the official Fiesta San Antonio schedule in 1980.[33] The Fiesta royalty are present at the ribbon-cutting ceremony that marks the official beginning of Fiesta.

Best Fest, an annual celebration held in October, began in 1978 (as "Bestfest") as "a special salute to five of the state's outstanding festivals," including New Braunfels's Wurstfest, Corpus Christi's Buccaneer Days, San Antonio's Fiesta, the Texas State Fair in Dallas, and George Washington's Birthday Celebration in Laredo.[31] It was presented by the student organization Variety 79.[31] In 1979, the event was said to be "a salute to five of the city's outstanding festivals: Fiesta Navidena, King William Fair, La Feria del Rio, the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo, and the Texas Folklife Festival."[31] In the late 1970s, Best Fest included performances by the UTSA Brass Ensemble and UTSA Jazz Ensemble, several contests such as the jalapeño eating contest, egg toss, "Walking the Plank Contest," "Pee Wee Bicycle Races," and others. The modern Best Fest incorporates a Halloween theme with costume and booth-decorating contests.

University Life Awards

The University Life Awards (also known as the "ULAs") is an award ceremony sponsored by Student Government Association with the purpose of recognizing outstanding leadership on campus.[34] It recognizes students, student organizations, faculty and staff who have made an exceptional difference in the UTSA community.[35] It is touted as the university's oldest tradition.[36] Individuals and organizations are nominated by fellow students, faculty or staff. Awards include Most Outstanding Student (by colleges and classification), Greek Man and Woman of the Year, the Jane Findling Award, the Golden Feather Award and Most Spirited Student.[37]

Housing

Laurel Village housing office

UTSA offers four selections for on-campus housing:

  • Chaparral Village: Newly built apartment-like dorms with 2- or 4-bedroom configurations, housing 1,000 students. Amenities include paid utilities. Four "Neighborhood Centers" provide laundry and dishwashing appliances.
  • Chisholm Hall: The oldest housing facility on campus, a 4-story building with traditional dorm-style housing for 500 residents. It offers some of the largest residence hall rooms in a Texas public university, with rooms in 1- and 2-person configurations.
  • University Oaks: Apartments with 1-, 2- and 4-bedroom configurations, second oldest housing complex on campus. Amenities include paid utilities. "Rowdy Houses" provide residents with 24-hour laundry service and pool access. It houses 1,400 students.
  • Laurel Village: Similar in design to Chaparral Village, UTSA's newest housing complex completed construction in 2008. It houses 670 students.

A new $40 million dormitory to house 618 students is scheduled to open in August 2013. It is situated next to the Chaparral dorms.

More than 8,000 students live off-campus within walking distance of campus. These student housing complexes include: Alpin Park, Aspen Heights, Avalon Place, Broadstone Ranch, Campus Side, Chase Hill, The Grove, High View Place, Highlands, Hill Country Place, Las Colinas, Madera, Maverick Creek, The Outpost, Villas at Babcock, and The Reserve.

Campuses

The West Paseo of the Main Campus

The University of Texas at San Antonio is made up of three distinct campuses. The Main Campus, the oldest of the three, was born out of a 600 acre donation to the University of Texas Board of Regents.[38] It proved to be so controversially remote to the city (at the time) that many San Antonians nicknamed it "University of Texas at Boerne" or "UT Boerne".[38][39][40] The Main Campus opened its doors in 1975. Prior to that, classes were held at the Koger Center at Babcock Road and Loop 410.[38] Roadrunner Cafe, the university's first dining hall, was erected in 2005.[41] In 2006, UTSA acquired a 125 acre swath of land on Hausman Road to build its future athletics complex. Named "Park West", the site brings the Main Campus up to 725 acres in total.[42] Up until 2009 it was known as the "1604 Campus", at which point it was renamed the "Main Campus" so as to better reflect its importance within the university and community as a whole.[43]

The Downtown Campus is on the west side of Downtown.

The Downtown Campus is located in Downtown San Antonio and houses the College of Public Policy, the College of Architecture and the Texas State Data Center. In early 1993, the demolition of Fiesta Plaza made way for what would become the Downtown Campus.[44] While construction was underway, the campus made its temporary home at Cypress Tower on Main Street, offering its first classes in January 1994.[44] Its permanent location on I-10 and Cesar E. Chavez Boulevard (formerly Durango Boulevard) was completed in 1997.[15] Today, the Downtown Campus is composed of four buildings, a 19,000 square foot library and parking for over 2,200 vehicles all in over 18 acres of space.[5] It boasted 6,824 students in 2012, 4,188 of which take classes at both the Main and Downtown Campuses.[45] A new bus-rapid transit line, VIA Primo, is scheduled to open in late 2012. This will allow students to quickly commute between the UTSA Main Campus and the Downtown Campus.[46] A streetcar is also planned that will connect the Downtown Campus to the HemisFair Park Campus.

The Institute of Texan Cultures at the Hemisfair Park Campus

The UTSA HemisFair Park Campus, also in Downtown San Antonio, stands as the third branch of UTSA, holding the Institute of Texan Cultures museum. The ITC (as it is also known) was originally built for HemisFair '68[47] and turned over to the University of Texas System afterwards. The system designated it as a campus of UTSA in 1986.[15]

Expansion and growth

From 2006 to 2009, the University completed over $250 million in construction projects.

The school underwent an extensive remodel in 2009 of older buildings including the JPL, HSS, and MS buildings. North Paseo Building, a $15 million office building, started housing ROTC operations when it opened in October 2011. A new ceramics studio broke ground in 2009 and two adjacent science buildings underwent $24 million in renovations.

UTSA has also purchased 125 acres (0.51 km2) of land near the Main Campus in 2007. This land was named Park West in 2009 and became part of the school's Main Campus. The school has plans for more than $150 million in new athletic facilities at Park West.

The $83 million Applied Engineering and Technology building opened in 2009.

East Parking Garage, a $30 million 5-level parking garage, is planned to open July 2012. It will also include a coffee shop, apparel shop, and office space.

Dining services at UTSA also expanded in 2008 continuing through 2011. New additions include two Starbucks, Panda Express, Taco Cabana, Burger King, and Chili's Too. Other new services on-campus include a hair salon, technology store, UPS store, and DVD rental kiosks.

Student activities

At the heart of student life are 256 student organizations that represent a diverse array of niches on campus.[48] Among the most prominent of groups are the sponsored organizations that receive funding from the University Student Services fee. These sponsored student organizations are the only RSOs (Registered Student Organizations[49]) that may use "UTSA" in their name.[50]

Be a Responsible Roadrunner

Be a Responsible Roadrunner (BARR) is a registered student organization supported by the Office of Student Activities.[51] BARR focuses on delivering educational programming to the student body on issues relating to their health and encouraging them to engage in healthier alternatives. They conduct many events on campus such as Alcohol Awareness Week, Thirsty Thursdays, Safe Spring Break and Party on the Paseo (in association with other organizations).[51] The latter event garnered the "Outstanding Alcohol Abuse Prevention Award" for the organization at the 2010 BACCHUS Network General Assembly.[52] BARR offers resources on their website relating to alcohol, hazing, personal safety, the Internet and substance addiction.[51]

Campus Activities Board

The Campus Activities Board (colloquially known as "CAB") is the largest student program board on campus.[53] It is student-lead and serves to foster traditions and community at the university.[53] CAB members coordinate large-scale UTSA events such as Best Fest, Fiesta UTSA and various homecoming functions.[54]

Greek Life

Greek life at UTSA is directed by the four governing bodies: the National Panhellenic Conference (6 chapters[55]), the North-American Interfraternity Conference (6 chapters[56]), the National Pan-Hellenic Council (4 chapters[57]) and the National Multicultural Greek Council (8 chapters[58]).[56] It was first established in 1977 and since then has contributed greatly to student life all around campus.[59]

Student Government Association

Student Government Association (more commonly called "Student Government" or simply "SGA") is the official voice of the university's student body.[60] Its student officials are comprised of the President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, Executive Senator, college senators, class senators, justices and appointed directors.[61]There are five standing committees within SGA: Academic Affairs, Business Affairs, Finance Committee, Student Affairs and University Advancement.[62] Every spring semester, Student Government hosts the "University Life Awards", a large celebration in the Ballroom, to recognize excellence in leadership throughout the campus.[63] SGA has worked towards environmental sustainability on campus through support of the Green Fund, a fund supported by a small student fee and oveseen by an independent committee.[64] In 2011, Student Government rejected the Texas Senate bill proposed by Senator Jeff Wentworth that would have legally permitted students with a CHL to carry guns on campus. This decision came about after students overwhelmingly opposed the idea through an online poll conducted by the organization.[65] All students at UTSA are considered members of SGA, due to both the fact that its activities are subsidized through the Student Services Fee and that it represents the views of the entire student body.[61]

ROTC Programs

UTSA has one of the most extensive Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) programs in the United States and is the nation’s sixth largest Air Force ROTC program with over 240 cadets. In 2009, the school’s Air Force ROTC detachment won the Right of Line Award, the most prestigious award among all Air Force ROTC units. Ranking first in the Southwest Region out of 36 detachments for producing the most second lieutenants in the Air Force. At the national level, with 144 detachments, UTSA was ranked second along with Purdue University. UTSA also has the largest Air Force ROTC program among Hispanic Serving Institutions .[66] In 2009, The AFROTC unit was awarded 36 slots for field training compared to rivalry school Texas A&M, which had 32.[67]

Political Groups

UTSA is host to numerous, varying political groups. The university's political community has often gained much media coverage throughout Bexar County due to its active student organizations. The campus' Young Democrats chapter was originally founded by Ernest W. Bromley in 1977, and is a part of Young Democrats of America and College Democrats of America.[68][69] It has brought notable Democratic politicians to campus such as Bill White, Joe J. Bernal and Bob Krueger.[70][69][71] College Republicans dates back to about the same time as its on-campus rival.[72] It associates with the Republican Party of Texas, College Republicans and the Republican Party of Bexar County.[73]

Publications

The Paisano

UTSA also hosts a nationally recognized weekly newspaper, The Paisano. It has remained fully independent of the administration since its inception in 1981. The newspaper is published weekly every Tuesday.

The Independent

The Independent[74] (founded in 2006) was an online newspaper experimenting with newer forms of media, such as podcasting at UTSA. In Spring 2008, The Independent launched a monthly print issue. As of January 20, 2010, The Independent is defunct and the last issue was on April 29, 2009.

The College of Engineering Student Council

The College of Engineering Student Council is the student voice of UTSA's College of Engineering. They are designed to serve and promote interaction among students and the engineering community. Their mission is to cultivate an active student body to encourage pride and tradition and to serve as the collective voice for all UTSA Engineering students. Their Vision is to serve as the cornerstone organization within engineering RSO's as acknowledged by their integration within the college of engineering and UTSA. They offer opportunities in STEM outreach, host guest speakers, and compete in independent engineering competitions. Any student at UTSA's College of Engineering is a member and has a voice, but voting privileges is limited to 2 representatives from any engineering organization.

Campus life

With the addition of more on-campus housing in recent years, campus life at UTSA has evolved to become much more active. Before basketball games, tail-gate parties and body painting in the school's colors are common. There are many traditions as well, including Best Fest and Fiesta UTSA, both are events for students organizations to raise funds while providing entertainment and food to the student body.

A small percentage of incoming freshmen are in the CAP program, an agreement which allows students who are not initially accepted into the University of Texas, Austin to choose to come to UTSA. If they maintain a certain GPA and restrict themselves to taking specific classes, they will be granted admission to UT – Austin. The program is also in effect at all other UT institutions except Dallas, and continues to draw more and more students every year. The CAP program has become more controversial as more freshmen are enrolled. UTSA officials have stated that only about 30% of those in the CAP program end up at UT – Austin the following school year. Despite this, however, many students are opting to stay at UTSA, as the University has been recognized for its growing research and business programs.

San Antonio is well known for its tourist spots. In addition to research facilities, tourism and congenial weather/temperatures play important roles in attracting many students to UTSA.
