@TXSTHistory @PATTXST @TxStHistClub I love this department. Got my masters there 20+ years ago. The department remains generally positive, supportive culture. Want a master’s degree in history—@TXSTHistory is a fantastic choice.

We're happy to report that @PATTXST and @TxStHistClub had a very successful Halloween party!
