Brick Pavers

A Brick Paver is a unique and personalized way to honor your Longhorn

and leaves a lasting tribute on campus. In addition, your tax-deductible gift supports the operation of the Texas Parents department.

All UT parents, families and friends are welcome to participate in the Brick Paver program. Most often, parents of seniors purchase a Brick Paver as a graduation gift for their departing Longhorn. Brick Pavers can honor an individual, a group of individuals or a student organization. Brick Pavers are limited in number of characters and lines based on giving levels.
