Juarez-Lincoln University
- Juarez-Lincoln University
Juarez-Lincoln University was part of the Mexican-American education movement in Texas beginning in 1969. In that year many Latino students walked out in protest over lack of Latino history in secondary-schools in Texas, Latino faculty members and related issues. This lead to the start of Jacinto Treviño College in Mercedes, Texas.
In 1971 Leonard Mestes and Andre Guerrero who has been associated with Jacinto Treviño College left due to political differences and founded Juarez-Lincoln University in Fort Worth, Texas. It moved the next year to Austin, Texas. Originally it was located on the campus of St. Edward's University but it then moved to its own campus in 1975 when it had about 200 students. In that year it became affiliated with Antioch University.
It closed in 1979.
