about those two UT professors

2. Thank you - it is always good to hear from someone with inside knowledge

about these issues. I have to admit I was shocked to hear this was happening from two UT-Austin professors. There are several schools in Texas that wouldn't have surprised me but Austin?? Just doesn't fit the mental picture I had for the University.

I did go to grad school in Texas (University of Houston) a long time ago and Texas politics has taken a 180° turn since those days, but still I find it shocking that a Professor would get involved in such a controversial topic. But these days nothing seems out-of-bounds. No sure what has happened to Texas in the last 40 years, but it is not the same place I remember in my youth.
