UT System rethinking plan for new headquarters
In an abrupt and unusual move, officials of the University of Texas System have decided to “delay and rethink” a $102.4 million plan to build a new headquarters for the system’s staff in downtown Austin.
Chairman Gene Powell, in a memo to fellow regents Thursday, said construction projects at the system’s various campuses “must take priority over other internally-focused capital projects like the proposed new UT System building.”
Powell’s memo seemed to hint at a political calculation in the change of plans. He noted that a top legislative priority for the system is merging UT-Brownsville and UT-Pan American into a new university in the Lower Rio Grande Valley that would also oversee a planned medical school.
