From 2010 to 2020 "fast-growing Austin" metro area added about 570,000 people. Houston metro added twice that many - almost 1.2 million. Between 2000 and 2020, Houston metro added well more than the entire current population of Austin metro. As between Houston and Austin, it's pretty clear which metro area might need a new campus (and it's not Austin), and of course UT wasn't proposing a new campus anyway...

You are denying the PUF exists?
Also, I wasn't aware of any other major Universities IN Austin.
The UT equivalent in Houston is UH - a large public school with 50,000 students.
Then Houston has a premiere private University in Rice- Austin equivalent is?
Then Houston has a HBC in TSU- Austin equivalent is?
Houston then has smaller religious schools in St, Thomas, HBU- Austin has what, St. Edwards?
Both Houston and Austin have extensive Community College Systems- HCC & ACC.
The point is that Houston has WAY more Educational options than Austin.
Maybe the University of Houston should move in and build a UH-Austin campus.
Also...tell me more how I'm wrong about how the PUF only funds TWO systems.
