- After that, the school “ultimately intends to expand its operations to create a university dedicated to education at the highest levels,” according to the filing published by Bloomberg.
- The university would seek accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges, per the document.
Why it matters: It’s the latest plan by Musk, who moved to Austin during the pandemic, to reshape Central Texas according to his vision.
- He’s building a town in Bastrop east of Austin — dubbed Snailbrook — to house employees of Tesla, SpaceX and his tunneling venture, Boring Company.
- Musk moved the Tesla headquarters to Austin in 2021 and built a 10 million-square-foot factory, which produced the company’s first Cybertrucks last month.
