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