Ted Cruz getting booed at a UT game is funny, but the enrollment data behind the university is far more interesting. From 2012 to 2025, across the UT system, their own data shows: White enrollment: −15,488 Hispanic: +35,746 Asian: +13,215 Black: +2,828 International: +1,104 At UT Austin alone, White enrollment fell 6,310 while Asian enrollment rose 4,088 and Hispanic enrollment rose 3,920. And if the 2012–2025 trends simply follow the current trajectory, system-wide White share will fall from 19.6% today to ~8.6% by 2035. So yes, Ted got booed. But the bigger story is that Texas has watched its flagship public-university system undergo an extraordinary demographic transformation in roughly one decade. Maybe Texas politicians should start asking how it happened and do something about it.
