Dear Readers, As you may have seen, the University of Austin is officially a university in Texas. We gathered UATX co-founders Niall Ferguson, Bari Weiss, Pano Kanelos and I at my home in May 2021 to discuss the idea of starting a bold new university. Shaped by some of America’s leading entrepreneurs and academics, UATX was founded to courageously explore innovation and truth, unencumbered by ideological straitjackets or distractions.
Whether the University of Austin can fulfill its founders' hopes will probably not be known in their lifetimes. One positive thought is that while Stanford University is now a world famous institution, the only graduate from Stanford ever to become President was from their very first freshman class, Herbert Hoover

Thank you for doing this. You are the embodiment of my belief that America will continue to thrive, to lead in frontiers.
