1974, IIRC. It was shortly after that they closed the observation deck for a long time. One regent at the time was quoted as saying that it didn't matter; if they closed the Tower, people would just jump off Belmont Hall (UT Football Stadium.) Shortly afterwards a student jumped to his death from Belmont.When was this? Is this a common event? They say the people commit suicide by jumping regularly in Las Vegas.
