The Texas Orator is a nonpartisan, peer-reviewed political publication that was founded and is maintained by University of Texas at Austin students. We value thorough analysis in our articles and strive to protect the ideals of free speech and unhindered access to information on campus and nationwide. We seek to keep the student body informed of the implications of ever-changing political climates, both domestically and abroad, from a range of voices and perspectives.
We have been indexed as scholarly literature by the UT Libraries and by UT Undergraduate Studies.
We are sponsored by Ramsey’s Restaurant of Victoria, Texas, and the Thomas Jefferson Center for Core Texts & Ideas. We are also a member of UT’s Civic Engagement Alliance.
