Trailblazer Weekly Bulletin

I am pleased to share today’s TAMIU Weekly Trailblazer Bulletin Monday, March 2, 2026. The Bulletin is available at https://go.tamiu.edu/bulletin

This past Saturday, we were proud to welcome 200+ future Dustdevils and their families to Preview Day at Texas A&M International University (TAMIU). Our prospective Dustdevils learned about the University’s academic programs, student services, on-campus housing and campus traditions. Our best to all of them, and we hope to see many of them return to TAMIU as incoming, first-year students. Most importantly, we hope that these students realized that a university education is within reach and is the key to their future.

Spring Break is right around the corner, Dustdevils. Join us for Spring Break Revolution Week, a series of events focused on promoting a positive, safe and healthy Spring Break for all our students, happening March 2 – 6. A full event lineup is now online at https://www.tamiu.edu/studentaffairs/sbr.shtml

Also happening this week is a special sign unveiling ceremony recognizing the newly named Kate Marmion Counseling Center. The event commemorates the contributions of the Kate Marmion Charitable Foundation to TAMIU. The ceremony is slated for Thursday, March 5 at 1 p.m. in the Student Center Rotunda. We will also have a ceremony on Wednesday, March 4 at 6 p.m. for the unveiling of a plaque to recognize the Sonia and Memo Benavides Immersive Theatre. Each of these events demonstrates that we have wonderful community partners that care about our students and who are committed to investing in TAMIU’s mission to further student success.

Discover TAMIU 2026 is nearly here! Our annual celebration features 100+ family-friendly activities for attendees of all ages. We will offer arts and crafts tables, games, live science demonstrations, music and dance performances, and more. We encourage you to bring your friends, family and loved ones to campus Saturday, March 21 from 11 a.m. – 3 p.m. Admission is free and open to the public.

Have a great week!
