Given it's current name in 1951 the university was established to provide credible college educations for African-American students, but through the years has become one of the more ethnically diverse institutions in Texas. Much like the quote from the movie Field of Dreams, ""If you build it, they will come,"" the university has grown from one permanent building to 45 permanent buildings sitting on a 150-acre campus. Enrollment has also grown from 2,303 to over 9,500 students from over 50 countries around the world including Africa, Canada, the Caribbean, China, Europe, Mexico, and South Asia. Home of the critically acclaimed Thurgood Marshall School of Law, (named the most diverse law school in the nation three consecutive years by U.S. News and World Report), the university features nine unique schools and colleges. Striving to exceed educational expectations students can choose from the Tavis Smiley School of Communications, Jesse H. Jones School of Business Graduate School, the College of Science and Technology, or the College of Liberal Arts and Behavioral Sciences just to name a few. Texas Southern University is also one of only two universities in the nation to use flight simulators to support its airway sciences program.
