Recognizing April 17, 2025, as The University of Texas Arlington Day.
This Senate Resolution (SR 418) designates April 17, 2025, as "The University of Texas at Arlington Day" at the Texas State Capitol. It formally recognizes the university's history, including its founding in 1895, current status as the second-largest institution in the UT System (with over 41,000 students), research impact (Research 1 designation, $59 million annual economic contribution), and upcoming campus development. The resolution extends a welcome to the university's delegation visiting Austin for this designated day, coinciding with the institution's 130th-anniversary celebration. As a ceremonial resolution, it has no binding policy effect.
