Uh? Doesn't look anything close to the shape of Texas. The architect must have been smoking something.
The library opened in the mid-70s while I was a student there. It was one of several odd architecture creations on campus where saner heads should have said “no”. The Communications Building was coated with a metal that was supposed to rust into the burnt orange color. But, instead, it rusted into a darker, ugly shade that just looks like an eyesore now.
Dead gunman was a student. Not all of campus buildings have been cleared even though the “all clear” has been issued. Students who live on campus are to remain in their dorms. All other students and faculty should leave campus as they are released from their buildings.
I must say that UT and APD did very well this morning. They were on the scene promptly and alert went out to student cell phones immediately. There was some cell service interruptions due to so much usage. I do know that AT&T was upgrading their system a couple weeks ago but I don't know if that work is still in progress.
