During the past two years, we have worked together to launch an exciting, shared vision for our university’s future…

Another school year comes to an end today – a year when we were so grateful for the return to our full campus and the experiences it brings that make being a Longhorn so special.

Today, I wanted to update you on how university leadership is working to acknowledge and reward our talented people who enable our university’s success, as well as the university’s work on the broader faculty and staff talent management aspects of our strategic plan.

We write to inform you that Dr. Richard J. Reddick has been appointed Senior Vice Provost for Curriculum and Enrollment and Dean of The School of Undergraduate Studies.

On Friday, we released the faculty promotion and tenure decisions for final approval. This is a big day for the faculty members who will be promoted and/or receive tenure, and well-deserved recognition for their years of hard work and excellence in teaching, research and service.

Due to the ongoing severe winter weather conditions, the university will remain closed on Friday, February 4, 2022. All classes and events will be canceled, and UT shuttle buses will not run. We will resume normal campus operations at 8 am Saturday, February 5.
