Facts
The shorter of two towers, this complex makes up the largest dormitory complex in the United States with 3,000 student residents.
The two towers were named after Beauford H. Jester, governor of Texas from 1947 to 1949. He died in office of a heart attack, and became the first Texas governor to die in office.
