 | | The growth of Arlington and the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area provided the impetus for the rapid development of the college after 1959. |
 | | By 1976 the university's four colleges had been joined by an Institute of Urban Studies and by schools of social work, architecture and environmental design, and nursing, each of which was responsible for its own undergraduate and graduate programs. |
 | | In sports, by the early 1980s the college had dropped swimming and football to concentrate on men's basketball, track, baseball, golf, and tennis; women competed in volleyball, basketball, softball, and track. |
