Once Again - You Did It!

During the "Give Back to Go Forward" Giving Day, the RAMily had 24 hours to unite and help Texas Wesleyan University continue to provide our students with strong academic programs and crucial financial aid.

Once again, our TXWES community has demonstrated the huge impact that’s made when we all join together. We rocked our 135th birthday by raising $35,000 on Giving Day. We cannot say "Thank You" enough!

On April 1, over 150 faculty, staff, alumni and students gathered in front of the Martin University Center as the Ram Band played and the Gold Line Dancers and cheer squad cheered us on!  Our "Give Back to Go Forward" theme was embraced by "Back to the Future" enthusiasts who celebrated with us under the clock tower on Moritz Circle for a hamburger lunch, popcorn, games, a vintage car (thanks to Dr. Ric Rodriguez) and Willie and Ram. Of course, no "Back to the Future" celebration would have been complete without Doc Brown and Einstein! Thank you Joe "Pro Joe" Brown for your participation!  We also had quite a few giveaways for faculty/staff to say "thank you" for all you do and give to the University. One of the highlights was the pie-in-the-face contest, where everyone could vote with their money. Hector Quintanilla, Tommy Nichols, Gary Stout, Brian Franks and Eric Kicinski were all great sports willing to be the "winner!"  Gary Stout and Brian Franks tied for the honor of a pie-in-the-face!

Over all a great time was had by all, while raising money for the Wesleyan Fund!

Haven't had a chance to give back?  It's never too late.
