Senate Bill No. 103 provided for the establishment of a "State
school west of the 98th meridian and north of the 29th parallel,"
thereby setting the ground work for the creation of Texas
Technological School. Among the purposes of the school was to
provide a "co-educational college giving thorough instruction in
technology and textile engineering from which a student may reach
the highest degree of education." The collection contains the
applications, proposal and supplemental information submitted by 36
applicants for the location of the Texas Technological School.
Several include black and white photographs, maps and blueprints. A
few also have leather covers.
