Mr. and Mrs. Terry share a Kodak moment with some o f the scholars at the annual picnic held in Winedale, Texas.

The Terry Foundation was established in 1986 by Nancy

M. and Howard L. Terry out o f a desire to help young people

to help themselves. The Foundations goal is to improve and

develop the State of Texas by assisting graduates o f Texas high

schools to attend The University o f Texas at Austin and Texas

A &M University each year. The Foundation hopes these

students will have a significant impact on the future leader

ship of our state and nation. To achieve this goal, The Terry

Foundation awards substantial scholarships to students who

meet the exacting standards set by the founders.

Mr. and Mrs. Terry are both long-time residents of

Houston, Texas. Howard Terry has been active in businesses

o f banking, investment, construction, real estate, and oil and

gas in the Houston area for many years. He now feels that

his finest achievement was the establishment of The Terry

Foundation. Nancy Terry completely concurs.

2

The primary purpose o f The Terry Foundation is to

identify young people who have the promise o f future

distinction as a leader and to assist them in developing their

future and the future o f those around them.

Terry Foundation awards are based on the criteria of

leadership, character, scholastic ability, need, and participation

in activities. The competition for acceptance in the program

is keen. A potential Terry Scholar must demonstrate leader

ship potential, a desire to enrich the general welfare o f the

community, and academic ability. A well rounded personality,

grounded in the desire to succeed, and a demonstrated history

of community leadership, are the key qualities sought by The

Foundation. Mere academics or need alone is not enough.

To apply for a Terry Award, candidates must graduate from

a secondary school in the State of Texas, public or private, and

be accepted to attend either The University of Texas at Austin

or Texas A & M University. Currently, nominations are made

by the scholarships or financial assistance office at the

student’s university o f choice. The Directors request a letter of

recommendation from each applicant’s high school English or

Mathematics teacher. Other letters of recommendation that

shed light on an applicant’s leadership and desire to succeed

are encouraged.

The applications o f nominees are screened first by the

respective university’s financial assistance office and second by

the Board o f Directors. Candidates who progress successfully

through this preliminary process are invited to Houston,

Austin or Dallas at The Foundation’s expense, for a personal

interview with the Directors and others. After the interviews,

the Terry Scholars are selected for the coming year.

In the first year, 1987-88, The Foundation awarded 16

scholarships. They were joined in 1988-89 by 17 additional

recipients. There are currently 233 Terry Scholars at the

University o f Texas at Austin and Texas A&M University. One

hundred twenty-one scholarships were awarded for the class

of September, 1999. The Foundation anticipates that the

number o f scholarships awarded will increase every year.

Each Terry Scholar is awarded an annual stipend

depending upon prior awards and financial need. The

Foundation intends to always be the principal financial

support for each Scholar. The awards are renewable semester

to semester, depending upon satisfactory progress, and are

designed to cover four years o f study for an undergraduate

degree.

The founders hope that The Terry Foundation will

continue to grow and prosper with an increased number o f

awards each year and that the Scholars will become a family

who will want to participate in the future o f The Foundation

and to help those who follow them.

T e x a s A & M U n i v e r s i t y

Texas A & M University’s Academic Building.

Texas A& M University, the Lone Star State’s first public

institution o f higher learning, is one o f the select few

universities in the nation to boast triple land-grant, sea-grant,

and space-grant status.

The 123-year-old university is located in College Station, a

medium-sized community that is approximately equidistant

among the state’s most metropolitan areas. Its 5,200-acre

campus is one o f the largest in the nation and is the home of

the George Bush Presidential Library and Museum, which

opened in November of 1997.

Texas A & M has long been known nationally for its school

spirit and traditions, including the fact that its students stand

throughout football games as the Twelfth Man to indicate

symbolically their willingness to suit up and play if needed.

More recently, it has expanded its reputation to include

national recognition for attracting top students, innovative

research programs, and exceptional academic programs in a

host o f areas.

The university’s student body includes some of this

country’s best students. Texas A&M , for example, has

consistently ranked among the nation’s top 10 schools in

enrollment o f new National Merit Scholars. In all, it has more

than 2,500 students receiving major four-year academic

scholarships and over 20,000 receiving some form of

scholarship aid.

With 43,442 students, the university ranks fourth

nationally in overall enrollment. Among those students are

7,360 graduate and professional-school students as well as

students from all 50 states and more than 110 foreign

countries. Women now comprise approximately 46 percent o f

the student body at the school that was once all male and all

military. Although military training has not been mandatory

4 A&M

for more than a quarter o f a century, some 2,000 young men

and women still choose to participate in the university’s Corps

o f Cadets. The Corps continues to commission more military

officers than any institution except the service academies.

Texas A & M also ranks tenth nationally in endowment

value, reflecting its ability to support world-class faculty and

facilities and other aspects o f the academic process. The

faculty includes a Nobel Laureate and a winner o f the

National Medal o f Science, five members o f the National

Academy o f Sciences, and nineteen members of the National

Academy of Engineering.

The university’s campus has numerous state-of-the-art

laboratories and research facilities, including a research

cyclotron, now one o f only three o f its caliber in the world.

The university also has a leading chemical characterization

center and various installations that enable it to be in the

forefront in biotechnology and numerous other disciplines in

both the life and physical sciences and in engineering.

The work o f an outstanding faculty in exceptional facilities

has placed Texas A& M in the top 10 in rankings o f major

research universities by the National Science Foundation.

The most recent N SF ranking placed Texas A&M ninth,

and the university’s volume has since grown to approximately

$367 million annually. The research projects supported by

that funding encompass all o f the university’s academic

colleges — agriculture and life sciences, architecture, business

administration, education, engineering, geosciences, liberal

arts, science, and veterinary medicine.

Not to be limited by state or national boundaries, Texas

A&M is firmly committed to being a vital part o f the “global

village.” Its international outreach efforts include memoranda

of understanding with more than 70 foreign institutions

and organizations in Europe, Asia, and South and Central

America. In addition, Texas A & M operates the Santa Chiara

Study Center in Castiglion Fiorentino, Italy, and many

College Station-based multidisciplinary groups are devoted

to enhancing research and scholarship opportunities both

at home and abroad.

The university mascot, “Bevo” the longhorn, graces the courtyard o f John Hargis H all on the U T campus.

Now in its 117th year, the University o f Texas at Austin is

recognized among major universities for its eminence in

research, teaching, and public service. It is the oldest and

largest component of the 15-campus University o f Texas

system. Since its opening in 1883, the University has grown

from a 40-acre tract to a main campus o f more than 410

acres and 119 buildings.

By attracting capable individuals from every segment of

society, the University seeks to maintain a student body that is

diverse in nature but united in its pursuit o f higher education.

U T Austin students come from 50 states and 120 foreign

countries. The fall 1999 enrollment was 49,009 students.

Minority and international students constitute 36 percent of

the student population. The backgrounds o f the students are

richly varied ethnically and geographically.

24 DT

The faculty o f U T Austin is composed o f 2,700 professors

and lecturers supported by more than 2,400 assistant

instructors and teaching assistants. They include the winner of

the 1977 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, the winner o f the 1979

Nobel Prize in Physics, the winner o f the 1967 Pulitzer Prize

in History, recipients o f the 1968 and 1986 Enrico Fermi

Award, and a 1971 National Medal o f Science recipient. The

University has more than 1,100 endowed positions — 226

chairs, 507 professorships, and 391 fellowships and lecture

ships. From the efforts o f individual faculty members to work

o f 92 organized research units, scholarly inquiry covers a

broad range of disciplines — literally spanning the known

universe from the inner workings o f atomic nuclei to the far

reaches of space.

In addition to teaching and research responsibilities,

faculty members maintain regular office hours and many serve

as academic advisers to students. Although U T Austin is a

large university, students will find most classes small enough

to allow for considerable faculty and student interaction.

The University has the fifth largest academic library system

in the U.S. In Anthony Hobson’s Great Libraries, it is cited as

one of the 32 great libraries o f the world. More than 7.6

million volumes are located in 19 different libraries on

campus. The system is comprised o f four separately adminis

tered units: the General Libraries, the Center for American

History, the Humanities Research Center, and the Tarlton

Law Library, the fifth largest academic law library in the

nation. The General Libraries consist o f the Perry-Castaneda

Library (the main library), the Undergraduate Library, the

Collections Deposit Library, four special collections, and nine

branches. Special collections include the Nettie Lee Benson

Latin American Collection, the Asian Collection, the Edie

and Lew Wasserman Public Affairs Library, and the Middle

East Collection.

The University campus also extends way beyond the

boundaries of the main campus, incorporating research

centers across the state that keep the University at the

forefront o f study in such areas as geophysics, astronomy,

marine science, history, literature, and engineering.
