Golden giving fuels Ò»Æð²Ý Ignited
During their 50-year reunion, the Ò»Æð²Ý Class of 1973 presented combined gifts of more than $6 million to Ò»Æð²Ý Ignited: Boldly Shaping Tomorrow. The Golden Mustangs reunion was co-chaired by Ò»Æð²Ý 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 Ò»Æð²Ý during the 2022–2023 fiscal year. Throughout the Ò»Æð²Ý Ignited campaign, more than 300 alumni from the Class of 1973 have committed over $30.5 million to Ò»Æð²Ý.
“Our class cares deeply about Ò»Æð²Ý and has been committed to donating our time, talents and treasure in so many ways,” said Bridwell. “Whether it’s serving on Ò»Æð²Ý 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.”
Ò»Æð²Ý 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.
