A. Spirit [Cover] F09 11.25 THE TEXAS A&M FOUNDATION MAGAZINE | FALL 2009 PRESIDENT’S LETTER Foundation Steers Steady Course In September the Texas A&M Foundation celebrated its 56th birthday and 10th anniversary in the Jon L. Hagler Center. It was a delight to see more than 400 of you—our former students and friends—at our pregame celebration Sept. 5. Much has changed since we moved into our new building in 1999. Many of you recall when the corner of Houston and what used to be “Jersey” Street was the University Police station. A few of you might remember even further back, when this spot was the location of an old county project house built in the late 1930s. There is a certain elegant symbolism in the fact that the campus home to major-gift philanthropy—the Hagler Center—sits on the site of a fundamental act of charity: folks back home helping poor kids go to college. Ten years ago the Foundation employed 72 people and managed assets of $537.9 million. Today we have 95 on our staff and oversee $1.2 billion in assets for Texas A&M. Back then we didn’t have an Internet and fans were just good Ags at Kyle Field, not people following our Facebook page. I’m privileged to say that my position and title have not changed since 1993. Bob Rutledge, my predecessor, directed the Foundation for 12 years before me. I hope you agree that this stable leadership, along with your generous gifts, has contributed to our success. Leadership change at A&M has been much in the news. The chart that accompanies this letter compares tenure among leaders of five A&M entities since the beginning of our modern era. You could say that these are not comparable, given that two are public, administered by the State of Texas, and the others are privately governed. But that’s my point: By design, the Foundation and its pri- vate partners are independent, financially sound and constant in the sea of change that seems to dominate society today. This autonomy and continuity give us the opportunity to avoid the vagaries and personnel turnover associated with today’s public governance so your gifts can best serve the students, faculty and programs of Texas A&M. We are here for the long run. We are here to facilitate permanent and stable support for A&M. And we have you to thank for it. As a footnote I’d like to mention that we included our 2009 annual report at the back of this issue of Spirit, beginning on Page 47. It saves us a little money versus a separate publication and, with its larger circulation, allows us to share our results with more of our friends. As always, we welcome your feedback. eddie j. davis ’67 president texas a&m foundation TEXAS A&M LEADERSHIP TENURE 1959 1963 1967 1971 1975 1979 1983 1987 1991 1995 1999 2003 2007 2011 Williams > Wells > Hubert > Hansen Eller > Adkisson > Rudder 1 Hiler > Luedecke > Richardson > Williams1 Mobley > Miller Thompson Sampson > Graves Vandiver Cocanougher > Mobley McTeer > Gage > McKinney > Bowen Gates Davis > Murano > Loftin > 2 Rutledge Davis Weirus Matson Garner Hopkins Brister Green Shannon Marks 1959 1963 1967 1971 1975 1979 1983 1987 1991 1995 1999 2003 2007 2011 Texas A&M University System Texas A&M University Texas A&M Foundation 1.

    THE TEXAS A&M FOUNDATION MAGAZINE THE TEXAS A&M FOUNDATION SUMMER 2009A Dutchman’s pipe vine blooms in Aggie maroon and white at the Holistic Garden on the West Campus. The garden, which offers lessons in horticulture to Texas A&M students and other visitors, has an annual budget of about $80,000 to pay student workers, buy plants and maintain facilities. Dr. Joe Novak, who established the garden, hopes creating an endowment will help him to expand the garden and educate more Aggies there. See page 18 for the full story. PRESIDENT’S LETTER Education Is Our Obligation At the Texas A&M Foundation, we spend a lot of time thinking and talking about the value of higher education. From time to time during our daily work, each of us may consider a fundamental question: Why am I raising money for Texas A&M University? Inevitably, we find the answer just outside our Hagler Center offices on campus. The answer is in the mind of the education major from Beaumont—with help from a scholarship, she will fulfill her goal of teaching the next generation of promising students. It’s in the heart of the renowned history professor who has devoted his life to the study of British history—funds from a faculty chair provide the resources to further his research and teaching. It’s in the spirit of the Texas A&M Rodeo Team cowboy from Glen Rose—without a scholarship, he could not attend a major university and compete nationally in the sport that defines his young life.

Geocities is no longer allowing off-site links to point to images on their servers. --Cariño ’99 -- [I got this on an email. Not sure if it's been posted already, but I've included the photo mentioned.] A hero... Subject: The Twelfth Man The twelve young people who died were truly remarkable kids. They were scholars, student athletes, active in Boy Scouts, 4-H, Church groups,they were leaders. If you had to chose a dozen students to represent the best of Texas A&M, you probably wouldn't do much better than these. I have just learned about Timothy Doran Kerlee, Jr. He was the twelfth student to die, when his life support was disconnected last Friday evening. Let me tell you about this amazing kid. Tim graduated last year from Germantown High School in Germantown,Tennessee. He was an Eagle Scout, graduated third in his class, and was elected to his High School Hall of Fame. He was a student athlete, and a member of the National Honor Society. He was active in the youth group and drama club at his Methodist Church. He was actively recruited by Texas A&M, and when he enrolled he tested out of his entire freshman year. That is how this 17 year-old could be classified as a sophomore.
