The school officially opened on September 28, 1914, with 27 students in buildings belonging to the former El Paso Military Institute on a site adjacent to <a href="/wiki/Fort_Bliss" title="Fort Bliss">Fort Bliss</a> on the Lanoria Mesa. The school was founded in 1913 as the State School of Mines and Metallurgy,<sup id="cite_ref-Official_Names;_UTEP_Encyclopedia_11-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Official_Names;_UTEP_Encyclopedia-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and a practice mineshaft survives on the campus. By 1916, enrollment had grown to 39 students, including its first two female students, Ruth Brown and Grace Odell. </p><p>On October 29, 1916, a devastating fire destroyed the main building of the school, prompting its relocation. In 1917, the new school facility was constructed on its present site above Mundy Heights at the Paso del Norte, with the land donated by several El Paso residents. In a period when United States architects were designing in styles adopted especially from Europe, Kathleen Worrell, wife of the university's dean, was attracted by photographs of the <a href="/wiki/Kingdom_of_Bhutan" class="mw-redirect" title="Kingdom of Bhutan">Kingdom of Bhutan</a> in a 1914 issue of <i><a href="/wiki/National_Geographic_(magazine)" class="mw-redirect" title="National Geographic (magazine)">National Geographic</a></i> magazine, which showed the <i>dzong</i> architecture style of its <a href="/wiki/Buddhist" class="mw-redirect" title="Buddhist">Buddhist</a> monasteries.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The resemblances between the local terrain and mountainous features of Bhutan inspired her to propose designing early buildings of the mining school in the dzong style. Liking its distinctiveness, administrations have continued to choose that style for additional facilities, including the Sun Bowl football stadium and parking garages. <a href="/wiki/Dzong_architecture" title="Dzong architecture">Dzong architecture</a> has characteristics such as sloping sides, markedly overhanging roofs, and bands of colored decoration.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The University of Texas Board of Regents changed the name of the institution in 1919 first to the <b>Department of Mines and Metallurgy</b> and then to the <b>College of Mines and Metallurgy of the University of Texas</b> (TCM) in 1920.

The school was rebuilt on its present site in 1917. Kathleen Worrell, the wife of the school's first dean, Steve H. Worrell, had seen pictures of Bhutanese buildings in an April 1914 issue of <i><a href="/wiki/National_Geographic_Magazine" class="mw-redirect" title="National Geographic Magazine">National Geographic</a></i>. Noting the similarity of mountainous Bhutan (which is in the <a href="/wiki/Himalayas" title="Himalayas">Himalayas</a>) to the location of the campus, she suggested the new buildings be in the style of Bhutanese <i><a href="/wiki/Dzong_architecture" title="Dzong architecture">dzongs</a></i> (monastic fortresses), with massive sloping walls and overhanging roofs. This idea was enthusiastically accepted by all. </p><p>El Paso architect Charles Gisbon of the firm Gibson and Robertson originated the <a href="/wiki/Dzong_architecture#University_of_Texas_at_El_Paso" title="Dzong architecture">Bhutanese Revival</a> building designs.

The Miners finished the season with a 28-1 record. At a time when many claimed black players lacked the mental and emotional "necessities" to compete at a high level, Haskins put his usual starting players in the championship game. They were the first all-black team to start in a game at that level. This story was retold in Haskins' autobiography <i>Glory Road</i> (2005) and in the 2006 film <i><a href="/wiki/Glory_Road_(film)" title="Glory Road (film)">Glory Road</a></i>, a production with a few historical errors, such as a game at Commerce, Texas that never occurred. Haskins coached his entire career at UTEP and compiled a 719–353 record with only five losing seasons. He was inducted into the <a href="/wiki/Basketball_Hall_of_Fame" class="mw-redirect" title="Basketball Hall of Fame">Basketball Hall of Fame</a> in 1997, and the special events center was renamed the Don Haskins Center.

However, an earlier reference can be found in the handwritten bill (Senate Bill 183) that established the school in 1913, where the author, State Senator Claude Hudspeth, mistakenly wrote "Miners" instead of "Mines," and thus referred to the school as the "State School of Miners and Metallurgy." It is presumed the nickname "Miners" came from the fact the school was founded as the "State School of Mines and Metallurgy." In doing research on this project, early mention of "Ore Diggers" and "Muckers" for the nickname was found, but nothing to determine if the name "Miners" was voted upon by the student body, or if a faculty member, John W. (Cap) Kidd, chose the name. Kidd was a big booster of athletics, especially football, and in 1915, when funds were lean at the school, Kidd donated $800 to equip the football team, though there is no evidence other than anecdotal he contributed this amount. He also assisted with coaching, although he was not the head coach.
