Physics, Math, and Astronomy Building


Physics, Math, and Astronomy Building is a building on the University of Texas at Austin campus, in the U.S. state of Texas. The building was completed in 1972, and houses the astronomy, mathematics, and physics departments.
The building was originally named after mathematician Robert Lee Moore. In 2016, students demanded the building be renamed because of Moore's racist treatment of African American students. On, during the George Floyd protests, University Interim President Jay Hartzell announced that the building would be renamed as the Physics, Math and Astronomy Building.
