Faculty Spotlight

Dr. Larry Wolz
Dr. Larry Wolz

School of Music and Fine Arts

The music faculty and the music facilities at HSU are among the finest in the state of Texas, and small classes and friendly teachers mean that you aren’t just a number here.
 
 

The Cannon

 

The cannon by the pond, a.k.a. Arizona Bill, is a tribute to the HSU students who left the safety of their classrooms in the early 1900's to fight in World War I. It was christened Arizona Bill in honor of Kenneth Burns, an HSU student who was killed during WWI as he carried a message through heavy weapons fire. This cannon was used during the Spanish American War as well as WWI and refurbished and rededicated in 1958. The paved area around the cannon is the Fort Babe Shaw Memorial and is inscribed with the names of 13 former HSU students who died during WWI.
