Have you heard anything you recognize from the UT Tower lately? That was the UT Guild of Carillonneurs (@texascarillon), made up of seven students who climb to the very top of the Main Tower to play songs on the 56 bells of the largest carillon in Texas. The guild was officially founded in 2010, but students have been playing the tower bells since the 1930s. They perform weekly concerts and for university events, playing a mix of requests from Instagram, music that is personally meaningful for them and their own work. “Personally, I like to pick what I think the people would like to hear, something popular. I played a Queen song, ‘Don’t Stop Me Now,’ a couple of weeks ago and that was really fun,” said Ai Han Nguyen, guild social media director and neuroscience and psychology junior. “Other people like to play what speaks to them more, but I’m just here for fan service.” Words and video: Isabella Zeff

Wishing you a holiday season of light and celebrations and a 2023 overflowing with joy! From your friends in the College of Natural Sciences For 75 years, The University of Texas at Austin Tower has been lit orange to celebrate special occasions that mark big triumphs and milestones of our campus community. Famously linked to athletic wins, the orange Tower lightings take place also when the university celebrates great research achievements, major distinguished teaching awards and big advances from College of Natural Sciences scientists, such as the creation of life-saving COVID-19 vaccine technology in a UT Austin lab. After almost a century, UT’s most celebrated landmark will be receiving renovations, as it carries forward its legacy of representing the university’s excellence, purpose and spirit. For the above image, “The Resonance of Change,” digital artist @NolanZunk captured “star trails,” or the illusion of motion caused by the Earth’s rotation, one autumn night near the Tower. #TexasScience #HappyHolidays #SeasonsGreetings #UTTower #UTAustin

Grant Steinauer, a senior at Westlake High School, 3D printed a UT Tower as a gift for his sister when she got accepted into Texas. The tower collectible became so popular among friends, he turned his childhood hobby into a business. Hook ‘em Grant! 🤘 Shop the tower collection, link in bio.

UT Tower를 하이퍼랩스로 담아보면?📸 텍사스에는 텍사스 이름이 들어간 대학교가 있습니다. 제가 있는 칼리지스테이션에 있는 Texas A&M 대학교 그리고 오스틴에 있는 University of Texas가 있죠. 오스틴에 위치한 University of Texas는 랜드마크로 시계탑인 UT Tower가 우뚝 솟아있습니다. 구름 한 점 없이 맑은 날 UT Tower를 하이퍼랩스로 담아보았습니다. 📍 UT Tower, 110 Inner Campus Drive,Austin, TX 78705 📸 @sonykorea A7R5 + SEL1224GM 📌 @photoclamofficial PTC-3441PL 🎒 @dbjourney Db Ramverk Pro Backpack 32L

What a privilege to get to go into the UT Austin bell tower and watch the bells be played!! The students who play the bells are a small exclusive group who take turns playing one of the largest and tallest carillons in the world!! The carillon on the tower has 56 bells that play automatically twice per day plus every quarter hour. When the students play, they shut off the quarter hour chimes so they can play uninterrupted. Thank you @texascarillon !! #universityoftexas #utaustin #carillon #uttower #belltower #austinreels #austintexas
