âThe Eyes of Texasâ report finds songâs intent ânot overtly racistâ
Student-athletes asked UT-Austin to drop the school song during Black Lives Matter protests in the summer of 2020.
AUSTIN, Texas - A comprehensive report from a committee tasked to look at the University of Texas at Austin s alma mater song has been released and one of the committee s findings was that the intent of The Eyes of Texas was not overtly racist.

And the fact that the song was, for decades, sung and revered on a segregated campus has, understandably, blurred the lines between intent and historical and contemporary impact. This complicates its understanding and explains how different people experienced the song in vastly different ways.
