Vision for the Campaign for Texas

The Commission of 125

In 2002 The University of Texas convened a group of citizens to establish goals for the University and to recommend a plan of action to achieve them. They created a new vision that will guide the University for the next quarter century:

“The University of Texas will be the best in the world at creating a disciplined culture of excellence that generates intellectual excitement, transforms lives, and develops leaders. The University of Texas will define for the 21st century what it means to be a university of the first class.”

The commission focused on two strategic initiatives:

  • Develop a new undergraduate core curriculum to better prepare students for lives of accomplishment.
  • Establish a more demanding standard for leadership of academic departments and research centers.

One imperative. Two strategic initiatives. A plan to make The University of Texas the No. 1 public university in America.
