Changes

Opened in 1921 as a teacher's college, SFA now offers classes through six colleges (Sciences & Mathematics, Fine Arts, Liberal Arts, Education, Business, and Forestry & Agriculture) and an independent program (Nursing).  The Arthur Temple College of Forestry & Agriculture is one of only two forestry schools in Texas and the only one located in the timber-producing East Texas region (as a nod to the industry, athletic teams are the Lumberjacks and Ladyjacks).

SFA in 2023 accepted an invitation to join the University of Texas System, which was later approved by the [[Texas Legislature]]; unlike most UT System institutions (such as UT-Arlington. which was originally Arlington State College), it has maintained its original name (due to being named for one of Texas' founding fathers).
