campusMax Groberlayers There have been teachers of History at Austin College since the college opened its doors over a hundred and fifty years ago.  Today's department of five full-time faculty members is home to both the State Historian of Texas (Light Cummins) and a winner of the 2010 T. R. Fehrenbach Book Prize (Jacqueline Moore).
