TCU is hitting the road. With more than 100,000 living alumni and counting, representatives
of the university will visit a series of cities this fall and spring to connect with
alumni, friends, prospective students and families, and industry and community partners.
Capitalizing on strong alumni engagement and increasing applications, they will share
the vision for the future of TCU and celebrate its success.
After an initial stop in Midland-Odessa, Texas, TCU heads to Houston, Chicago, Dallas
and Denver in the coming weeks.
Leaders took time in West Texas to focus on the university鈥檚 relationship with the city and its industry.

the Energy MBA and Ralph Lowe Energy Institute in the Neeley School of Business,鈥�

the industry 鈥� and they are right back here, powering the world. TCU鈥疪anch鈥疢anagement
is another program with Texas-sized impact that is training tomorrow鈥檚 industry leaders

Chancellor Victor J. Boschini, Jr. took time in West Texas to recognize donors Mike
and Brenda Harrison, who have made recent significant contributions to the university,
such as the under-construction football performance center and their scholarship program
for middle-income families.
Events in future cities will share a similar pattern of focusing on contributions from and success with each location, and all will feature a panel to share insights on TCU鈥檚 strategic plan, the value of a TCU degree, the research and creative scholarship underway, athletic programs, attracting top-tier students and more.
