Howard Payne University is a private Baptist-affiliated liberal arts university that's been anchoring Brownwood's cultural and academic life since 1889, with a compact campus where red-brick buildings and live oaks create a classic small-college atmosphere. Visitors typically notice the Douglas MacArthur Academy of Freedom, a museum and research center dedicated to American heritage, which draws history enthusiasts beyond the student body.
