The Rio Grande College History
Del Rio, Eagle Pass, and Uvalde
The Rio Grande College of Sul Ross State University, with sites at Del Rio, Eagle Pass, and Uvalde,
serves thirteen counties in Southwest Texas. Sometimes referred to as the Southwest Texas Badlands,
this area is known for its fields of purple sage and its Old West ambiance. In this atmosphere, the
College works continually towards higher standards of excellence in teaching and learning. The Rio
Grande College offers junior, senior, and graduate coursework with programs in Liberal Arts, Business,
and Teacher Education. Some courses are also offered on the Laughlin Air Force Base near Del Rio.
Begun originally as the Sul Ross State University Study Center, the College was renamed the Uvalde
Study Center in 1985, and again the Uvalde Center in 1989. Recognizing its service to the broad area
of the Middle Rio Grande and Wintergarden regions of Texas, the Legislature renamed it Sul Ross State
University Rio Grande College in 1995. Sul Ross and the southwest are closely tied. The blending of
the Hispanic and Anglo heritages makes Sul Ross perfect for anyone who seeks intellectual
development with emphasis on the mutual culture that all Americans share.
The student body consists of multi-cultural, traditional, and non-traditional students. Campus activities
and opportunities are designed for everyone. Activities include a calendar of programming events,
publication of students' creative writing, a student newspaper, a yearbook, and five student
organizations: the International Reading Association, the National Council for Teachers of English, a
service learning club, a business club, and an editor’s club. Additionally, the College students
participate in an annual leadership retreat. The Education Department sponsors the annual "Issues in
Education" lectures; the Liberal Arts Department sponsors trips to cultural activities such as the San
Antonio Ballet and Shakespeare in the Park; and the Business Administration Department offers public
lectures with noted experts on business topics. Additionally, tutoring sessions are available in all areas
for anyone who would like extra help with his or her studies. Overall, Sul Ross offers a stimulating
academic environment with an emphasis on the student.
The College Sites
Del Rio
Del Rio, Texas, sister city of Ciudad Acuña, Mexico, combines the ambiance of Mexico with American
culture to form a diversified city. Nearby, the Pecos River joins the Devil's River and the Rio Grande to
create Lake Amistad, the ninth largest of its kind in the United States with more than 850 miles of
shoreline. Its canyons, cliffs, and caves provide both scenery and a place filled with history. Del Rio is
the home of the Whitehead Memorial Museum with its log cabin, cultural folk art exhibit, and
numerous other historical displays. A visit to Whitehead is like taking a stroll through history. Judge
Roy Bean, "The Law West of the Pecos," is buried here. West of Del Rio is Seminole Canyon State
Historical Park where 10,000-year-old pictographs adorn the canyon walls. Del Rio provides a perfect
place for learning about life (and education) on the border, and Sul Ross State University Rio Grande
College is proud to serve this region.

Eagle Pass
Eagle Pass, located on the border across from Piedras Negras, Mexico, is the center of a thriving
international trade community. First established as a camp in 1849, Eagle Pass has grown into a city of
over 25,000 people. With a variety of shops and malls, it is the gateway to Piedras Negras' colorful
outdoor markets and handiwork of the Mexican tradition. Biculturalism flourishes in Eagle Pass, and it
is common for people in Eagle Pass to speak both Spanish and English. In this atmosphere, Sul Ross
State University Rio Grande College strives to bring together diverse cultures.
Uvalde
Uvalde is a relatively old township in Southwest Texas. Settled in 1853, it served as a trading post for
area settlers and forts along the Nueces River. Prior to Texas' annexation, many battles were fought
along the Nueces River in an attempt to settle the boundary dispute between Texas and Mexico. Turn
of the century architecture is still evident in Uvalde. Nestled along tree shaded streets are many elegant
old homes, dating back to the late 1890s and early 1900s. Many storied houses with long porches,
balconies, and tall graceful columns preserve a testament to the past. The huge old oaks that were so
numerous in the area are so loved by the city that many streets are built around the trees.
Sul Ross State University Rio Grande College Statement
MISSION:
Sul Ross State University was created by act of the Thirty-Fifth Legislature of Texas in 1917 as a state
normal college with the primary purpose of preparing teachers for the public schools of West Texas. In
1921 the mission was expanded to provide course work in general academic requirements equivalent to
two years of college. In 1923 the State Legislature changed the name of the institution to Sul Ross
State Teachers College, and course work was added leading to baccalaureate degrees in liberal arts
disciplines. Master's degree studies were added in 1930. With name changes in 1949 to Sul Ross State
College, and again in 1969, to Sul Ross State University, the institution continued to have a broadened
mission. The Sul Ross State University upper level component was established in 1973 by
Coordinating Board authority, and in 1989 the Texas Legislature established it as part of the university.
The Rio Grande College, located on the campus of Southwest Texas Junior College, offers educational
programs for a thirteen-county region of the Southwest Texas not served by any other senior-level
institution of higher education. The student body reflects the population of the area, which includes a
large percentage of students from rural settings and a mixture of ethnic groups. Additionally, the
University attracts students from several states and foreign countries.
As a coeducational, comprehensive, public institution of higher education offering certificate programs
and associate, baccalaureate, and master's degree programs, Sul Ross State University has three major
functions: teaching, research, and public service. The University provides an atmosphere conducive to
the free exchange of ideas, to the fostering of an appreciation of diversity, and to the development of
professionalism among all who participate in its activities and services.
Sul Ross State University provides effective faculty and staff, appropriate facilities, plus relevant
instructional resources, student life programs, and support services to enhance teaching and other
8
opportunities for learning. The University supports research and scholarship to advance knowledge, to
facilitate teaching, to encourage professional development, and to utilize the distinctive environment of

statements and situations and use logical processes to solve problems; to communicate effectively
orally and in writing; and to solve quantitative problems at or above the level of college algebra.

breadth of knowledge.
Competency in an area of specialization: Students will acquire in-depth knowledge of major issues,
techniques, and theories in one or two subject areas. Graduates will be able to function as entry-level
practitioners in professions that are related to their area of specialization; achieve advanced levels of
professional development; and/or enter and successfully complete graduate programs of study.
Integrity, tolerance, and ethical values: Students will develop qualities of good citizenship including
an appreciation for and commitment to living and performing their work conscientiously; they will
learn to recognize, respect, and understand cultural diversity; and they will learn to recognize the
implications of what they believe.
Attitudes and skills leading to life-long learning: Students will acquire the skills and techniques
