TAMIU Celebrates
‘Thank You Day’
TAMIU students expressed
gratitude to University donors,
the Laredo community and
Texas during “TAMIUThankYou
Day,” this November.
A huge “ThankYou” note
was hung in the Student Center
Rotunda so students could
sign it, thanking those making
a generous difference in their
education.
“Tuition only covers 23% of
the cost of students’ education
here. The other 39% is covered
by gifts toTAMIU through the ‘ALL4TAMIU’
fundraising drive from alumni, faculty, staff and
friends, grants research and contracts. The other
38% is provided by support from the State of Texas,”
TAMIU’s Binational Center focuses on enhancing
relationships between the U.S. and other countries by
promoting civic and social organizations and institutions
through research, education, leadership, and public service.
The Center hosted a benefit to initiate its Binational
Scholarship Fund for Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, México
students.
“Mi Novia LaTristeza:The Life andMusic of Agustín Lara,”
featured live piano music and conversations with Mexican
authors Guadalupe Loaeza and Pável Granados about the
famed Mexican composer.
