The University of Texas at Austin (also referred to as the University of Texas, UT Austin, UT, or Texas) is a public research university located in Austin, Texas, United States, and is the flagship institution of The University of Texas System.[8][9][10][11] The main campus is located approximately 1&_160;mile (1.6&_160;km) from the Texas State Capitol. UT Austin was named one of the original eight Public Ivy institutions.[12] Founded in 1883, the university has had the fifth-largest single-campus enrollment in the nation as of fall 2007 (and had the largest enrollment in the country from 1997–2003), with over 50,000 undergraduate and graduate students and 16,500 faculty and staff.[4] It currently holds the largest enrollment of all colleges in the state of Texas.[13]

The university operates various auxiliary facilities aside from the main campus, including the J. J. Pickle Research Campus. UT Austin is a major center for academic research, annually exceeding $500 million in funding.[4] In addition, the university was recognized by Sports Illustrated as "America's Best Sports College" in 2002.[14] Its sports program has been dubbed the most successful in all of college sports.[15]

The first mention of a public university in Texas can be traced to the 1827 constitution for the Mexican state of Coahuila y Tejas. Although an article promised to establish public education in the arts and sciences, no action was ever taken by the Mexican government. But after Texas obtained its independence from Mexico in 1836, the Congress of Texas adopted the Constitution of the Republic, which included a provision to establish public education in the republic, including two universities or colleges. On January 26, 1839, the Congress of Texas agreed to eventually set aside fifty leagues of land towards the effort; in addition, 40&_160;acres (160,000&_160;m2) in the new capital of Austin were reserved and designated "College Hill."[16]

In 1846, Texas was annexed into the United States. The state legislature passed the Act of 1858, which set aside $100,000 in United States bonds towards construction of a university. In addition, the legislature designated land, previously reserved for the encouragement of railroad construction, toward the universities' fifty leagues. However, Texas's secession from the Union and the American Civil War prevented further action on these plans.

6. Is muscle growth possible in old age?
October 16, 2009

Normally, the answer to this question would be negative. Who would want to believe that muscle growth can happen during old age. In fact, it is scientifically tested that even the strongest muscle builders shrink their muscles when they turn old. However, a recent study by the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston researchers proves that muscle growth is possible in people having old age. The study is based on the grounds that with old age people tend to lose responsiveness to insulin which declines the physical strength. When we consume food, insulin level in the blood goes up and ... (read more)
