Golden giving fuels Ë®¶à¶àµ¼º½ Ignited
During their 50-year reunion, the Ë®¶à¶àµ¼º½ Class of 1973 presented combined gifts of more than $6 million to Ë®¶à¶àµ¼º½ Ignited: Boldly Shaping Tomorrow. The Golden Mustangs reunion was co-chaired by Ë®¶à¶àµ¼º½ Trustee Tucker S. Bridwell ’73, ’74; James L. Deem ’73, ’77 and Katharine Wilson Deem ’73; Stephen D. Sims ’73 and Susie Frey Woodall ’73.
Over 150 members of the Class of 1973 donated to Ë®¶à¶àµ¼º½ during the 2022–2023 fiscal year. Throughout the Ë®¶à¶àµ¼º½ Ignited campaign, more than 300 alumni from the Class of 1973 have committed over $30.5 million to Ë®¶à¶àµ¼º½.
“Our class cares deeply about Ë®¶à¶àµ¼º½ and has been committed to donating our time, talents and treasure in so many ways,” said Bridwell. “Whether it’s serving on Ë®¶à¶àµ¼º½ boards and committees or cheering on the Mustang athletics teams, we are proud of our connection to the Hilltop. That also shows up in our giving.”
Ë®¶à¶àµ¼º½ is incredibly grateful to the alumni and donors who empower Mustangs by investing in the future of the University. We proudly celebrated the Golden Mustangs during May’s Commencement Weekend at an event in the Meadows School of the Arts’ Gene and Jerry Jones Grand Atrium.
