History of Campus Name Changes:
Southwestern Medical College—the institution that grew into UT Southwestern—opened in 1943. The College was operated by the Southwestern Medical Foundation from 1943 until August 31, 1949. On September 1 of that year, Southwestern joined the University of Texas System, and its name changed to Southwestern Medical School. After another name change in 1972 (to UT Health Science Center at Dallas), the campus adopted its present name in 1987.
