MCNEESE 3PM OCTOBER 11, 2014 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT tepping onto our beautifully manicured and maintained campus, students and visitors alike experience something special about Sam Houston State University. Often described as “warm, friendly and inviting,” the environment provides a Scongenial atmosphere where students, faculty, and staff excel at work and education. In today’s world, the resources and infrastructure supporting the intellectual maturation of students are evolving quickly in response to changing demographic, societal, and technological trends. The nature and very speed of these changes are making a profound impact on the university’s academic and physical landscapes. In February of 2013, updates to the Campus Master Plan were approved to accommodate continuing enrollment growth, innovative academic and research partnerships, and changing housing and student life trends. Much thought and consideration were given to the conceptual and design phases of the plan to ensure SHSU’s culture, with its unique sense of community, is not only maintained but fortified. In this issue of the Heritage, we are proud to share with you our progress and provide an interesting glimpse into SHSU’s changing landscape: SHSU President Dana G. Hoyt and John M.
