Huston-Tillotson University is a historically black university (HBCU) that resulted from the 1952 merger of Samuel Huston College and Tillotson Collegiate and Normal Institute, which both date to the 1870s. The campus hosts many African American heritage events throughout the year, including the annual MLK Community March and Festival and the Juneteenth Parade.
