Undergrad at University of Texas at El Paso. Campus is unique for it's Bhutanese architecture. Back when UTEP, then known as Texas School of Mines, was founded in 1914, the wife of the first school president, saw a picture of Bhutan buildings in a National Geographic magazine and thought the mountainous setting resembled the area around El Paso, so she suggested they build the first buildings on campus in this style.
