Littlefield Gateway Duvet Cover

When you visit the University of Texas campus it is hard to miss the Littlefield Gateway. The construction was completed in 1932 and while a major landmark on campus, many people don�t realize that it also has a somewhat entertaining story behind its construction and the feud between two regents.
