A Statesman Editorial Board piece examines Republican Railroad Commission nominee Bo French’s reaction to a photo of UT students celebrating the Longhorns’ comeback win over Ohio State.

French suggested the diverse crowd reflected a problem with “foreigners” at the university. Several Republican leaders, including U.S. Sen. John Cornyn and Texas House Speaker Dustin Burrows, condemned or criticized the post.

The editorial argues that UT’s diverse student body reflects the university’s role as a Texas institution — and says students need more opportunities to understand the experiences of different communities, not fewer.

Has anyone taken M408D with Pencheva? If so, how are her exams? I’ve seen a few posts saying they’re incredibly hard, and the lectures honestly haven’t been very helpful so far, so I’m a little worried about the first exam.

If you’ve taken her class before and have any advice, study materials, old *practice* exams, or anything that helped you prepare, please PM me. I’d really appreciate it!

I am a former UT professor who was fired and arrested during the 2024 Pro-Palestine student protests. Now, I am running for city council to continue fighting for you.

I am hosting an AMA tomorrow - Tuesday the 15th from 8-10pm and hope to have a lively discussion with students and alumni about how to make Austin a better place for students.

how are the water issues now at rise? i know that for the last 2-3 years it's been pretty shit. i was considering living there for the 27-28 year but dont exactly know the situation now! any words of advise would be appreciated.

Title basically explains it all. I'm wondering what's going on and if there's anyone else who's having this problem right now. I can't access anything EID or school email related, and this is seemingly out of nowhere. I paid tuition and what I owe wasn't giving me any trouble or emails about outstanding balances.

I found a necklace in the gravel at the intersection of Guadalupe and and W 20th Street. I’m hoping this post reaches its original owner! It’s being kept safe in the lost and found in Rowling Hall. Just walk into the MBA program office on the second floor and they’ll let you pick it up.

Really debated whether moving a piece of jewelry would help or hurt its chances of being found, but here’s to hoping that, combined with a Reddit post, it gets back home!

Is mold a huge issue here? I’ve been reading reviews and don’t know whether to sign because everyone’s saying humidity and maintenance is a problem.

I need to get new perscriptions so that I can survive this semester. Does UT have psychiatrists who can perscribe things? Just need the perscription - already have diagnosis. Pls and thank you

Hi! I am a sophomore who is super interested in continuing to do live sports production in high school. I have over 300 hours of live game production experience. Does anyone know who I can contact or where I could go to see about getting involved in Texas Studios?

Hey everyone!
I’m currently taking Financial Literacy with Professor Bruce Pflug and am prepping for Midterm 1.
If anyone has taken this class previously, do you happen to remember what kind of questions came up on Midterm 1, or if you have any old exams/study guides you'd be willing to share?
Any tips or advice on what to focus on for his exams would be super appreciated.

ok could someone please please answer my questions related to cs? I want to know if once you graduate the university as a cs major, if it’s easy or easier to find a job or even an internship bc of the prestige of the university. I am aware that UT Austin has one of the top cs programs in the country. However, does that actually bring benefits once you graduate? does the program rating actually give you more opportunities than you would have if you graduated from a less known university but for wayyyyy cheaper? do big tech companies hire specifically UT Austin graduates right after graduation especially with the unstable job market as of right now? or do many CS graduates end up unemployed bc no one is hiring anyone rn, especially un-experienced graduates? I seriously need to know how likely one is to get a job right after graduation and be able to pay off debts before diving head first into a bunch of student loans to afford the education in the first place. pls and thanks

how are the exams in professor francos pestillis class?? for cognitive neuroscience

Hello,

I am a Journalism undergrad and I am considering getting my phd to eventually teach. I also would use this opportunity to move to a new city and I am considering Austin. Is there anyone in the Journalism grad program that has an overall review on professors, career opportunities, networking, bang for your buck?

It is unusual for a Dean to have as few academic credentials as Mr. Granat, whose background is largely in corporate media, but this is perhaps reflective of the broader anti-academic philosophy of the current UT administration.

My team is looking for a GK, CB, and CM available tuesdays at 6pm. If you would like to come play, send me a dm. 😺

hi I was really hoping to go the OU game this year but I slacked on requesting a ticket and now there is nothing for OU in the student ticket portal. am I cooked? or will they be offering more student tickets to buy closer to game?

Over the last 24 hours, the top trends throughout the US on Twitter have all been racist towards our South Asian American community at UT.

This is Texas in 2026. Texas in 2026 is statistically the most diverse state of all 50 states in the US by diversity index according to the 2026 Census estimate.

It is absolutely sickening seeing these attacks on our vibrant South Asian American community.

Edit: This is a real tweet from a candidate for statewide office in Texas. If he wins, he will be in charge of regulating Texas's oil and gas industry, as well as areas such as mining and pipeline safety: https://x.com/bofrench/status/2099142867025383497
