I was on campus a few months back and had a nice meeting with President Rawlins. I was very impressed with his plans, goals and leadership. I support his efforts to make UNT a major public research university and to offer the best undergraduate education in Texas.

It was good to be back on campus and to see the new Business Leadership Building and UNT's new Mean Green football stadium (now Apogee Stadium). Both are beautiful and positive assets for our university.

The degree I earned was so important to my career in the business world. Being at UNT gave me an opportunity to meet some lifelong friends and the chance to learn from some wonderful professors. I will always be grateful to Dr. C.L. Littlefield, Dr. Horace Brock and others, who took me under their wing and shared their expertise with me and, later, helped me get my first job in Dallas.

I am glad to see UNT doing so well.
