This is just one of the many positive examples of the Aggies whose lives have been impacted by your efforts. We want to help many more Aggies like Marissa, and we can only do that with more funding.
We invested almost 50% of last session’s $55 million for student success into targeted faculty hires. These faculty hires will also help increase retention and graduation rates, reduce time-to-degree and improve students’ and parents’ return on investment in a college education.
What can you do next? Thank your legislator!
Find who represents you in the Texas House and Senate, and send them a “Thanks and Gig ‘em!” for their investment during the 86th session in Texas A&M University and colleges and universities throughout the state. For a sample email and social media post, go to TX.AG/AdvocateThanks.
Next steps...
Once they are finalized, we will send you a more detailed update with Texas A&M’s legislative priorities for the 87th session. We know it is going to be a difficult session, and while we are sensitive to the stresses on state revenues caused by COVID-19 and other economic factors, now more than ever, we need your help to fight for more and keep what we have!
In the Aggie Spirit,
Jordyn Steinberger ’17
