The primary mission of the Provost's Office
is to secure the vitality of the University's academic life, to foster the
intellectual well-being of students, staff and faculty, and to marshal and
allocate resources in support of academic excellence, and in doing so, to serve
as an educational asset for the benefit of the state and the nation.
When the University of Texas opened in 1883, there was no provost.
Beginning in 1899, however, a chief academic officer was appointed as second in
command to the president. The title “provost” first appeared in 1957 when Harry
Huntt Ransom was appointed as vice president and provost. The position went
through numerous incarnations, finally becoming the Office of the Executive
Vice President and Provost in 1985.
Departmental and project files,
correspondence, and publications and printed material document the activities
of the Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost and its predecessors
from 1970 to 1988.
Unrestricted access.
