Answer: University of Texas

Texas A&M

Step-by-step explanation:

The Morrill Act of 1890 was put in place in order to ensure that admission was fair for all and that there was no discrimination.

According to the Morril Act, funds should not be given to the states that used race as a criteria for their admission process unless they established at least a land-grant college for the African Americans.

The Texas universities that were established under the Morrill Act were University of Texas and Texas A&M.
