Texas medical school in Austin faces scrutiny over Seton ties
The University of Texas Austin plans a 2016 launch of its new Dell Medical School with Seton Health Care Family, a Catholic system, training most faculty and residents under Catholic Ethical Directives. Critics from Americans United argue the arrangement unconstitutionally binds a public university to religious rules, while UT studies legal issues. The Seton-run hospital will replace Brackenridge in 2017 as the main teaching facility, with UT Southwestern and UT Medical Branch students already using the site.
