  1. So who ordered the dean of students message yesterday if Hartzell didn’t have anything to do with this? If he is just being told what to do and doesn’t agree with it then burn the house down.
  2. Dear UT community, This has been a challenging day for many. We have witnessed much activity we normally do not experience on our campus, and there is understandably a lot of emotion surrounding these events. Today, our University held firm, enforcing our rules while protecting the Constitutional right to free speech. Peaceful protests within our rules are acceptable. Breaking our rules and policies and disrupting others’ ability to learn are not allowed. The group that led this protest stated it was going to violate Institutional Rules. Our rules matter, and they will be enforced. Our University will not be occupied. The protesters tried to deliver on their stated intent to occupy campus. People not affiliated with UT joined them, and many ignored University officials’ continual pleas for restraint and to immediately disperse. The University did as we said we would do in the face of prohibited actions. We were prepared, with the necessary support to maintain campus operations and ensure the safety, well-being and learning environment for our more than 50,000 students. We are grateful for the countless staff members and state and University law enforcement officers, as well as support personnel who exercised extraordinary restraint in the face of a difficult situation that is playing out at universities across the country. There is a way to exercise freedom of speech and civil discourse, and our Office of the Dean of Students has continued to offer ways to ensure protests can happen within the rules. The University of Texas will continue to take necessary steps so that all our University functions proceed without interruption. Sincerely yours, Jay Hartzell President
  3. Yeah, looks like she is a professor at UT. Just wanted to make sure before I sent it to others. I hope it is real
  4. Where was this found or released?
  5. Yeah typing to fast and left the E off. Yes they are still open, but they are gone as of July 1st.
  6. UT Comms has gone dark for awhile, especially internally. Ever since the closing of the DCC.
  7. Yep, there are plenty appointments for tomorrow. They also changed their name to Texas Global 5 years ago, so if you look for the international office you may not find it.
  8. Went to the passport office at UT at the end of January. Used the normal timeframe and had the new ones in 3 weeks. Was able to make an appointment with them online.

    LBGTQ

    Dripping Springs isd has an agenda item for Monday(Aprill 22nd) to remove gender identity and sexual orientation as protected from discrimination...
  10. looks like me trying to land on the aircraft carrier in the NES Top Gun game
  11. Yeah, I was not aware. Had a cup about 45min after my procedure last Friday and no issues.
  12. I have had USAA for 20yrs due to my wife. Homeowners went from just under 2k two years ago to 5k this last yr. Shopping around next year.
  13. Had mine done last Friday. Family history of polyps, so they wanted me to get one done at 45, although I am hearing they are now saying all 45 yr old's need them. Fasting wasn't that hard, but the prep had me in the bathroom all night. Procedure was at 7:30am, so I got home slept some and then watched March Madness. They did remove 3 polyps and I will get the result within the next week or so, but doc wasn't concerned. Probably on a 3-5yr checkup timeline due to family history. I did come out of the sleep asking for Jameson and brisket, so I prolly need to rethink how much I drink. My wife did consider divorcing me due to the sounds that were coming out of the bathroom. Went to a bday party that night for a friend. Ate a lot of brisket and had a beer(apparently not supposed to drink for 24 hrs).
  14. LCRA is going to stage 3 officially on May 1st. There are rumors that they are talking about going to stage 4 in late summer/early fall based on projections. They are also reworking the drought contingency plan and all the stages. People need to stop irrigating and worry about drinking water. Lots more people consuming water than in previous droughts. If we don't get rain soon and lots of it west of us it could get bad.
