Untouched by State Government, One Austin University Is Thriving

A $1 million increase in funding from President Donald Trump’s administration (https://www.ed.gov/about/news/press-r...) — plus a record-setting $150 million donation from the Moody Foundation (https://www.texastribune.org/2025/09/...) — is empowering Huston-Tillotson University to make significant changes to its campus on the East Side in the coming years. But more than 150 years after the city’s oldest higher education institution was founded, the East Side looks dramatically different than it used to. So, should H-T relocate? And if not, what is its role in a modern-day gentrified Austin? And, why is enrollment at H-T and other historically black colleges and universities growing while it’s declining at other institutions (https://educationdata.org/college-enr...) ? Host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by H-T President Melva K. Wallace to discuss.  Want some more Austin news?
