Snicker…..

Seriously, they couldn't raise $1,500 to $4,000 for new uniforms in 5 years?

NTCC baseball team does an annual fund raiser for the team, for new uniforms, meals, travel budget, etc, $10K goal, that they surpass every year, and that's little ole Northeast Texas.

Our "donor" contributions are pretty solid if you look at Knight Newhouse. I compared our private contributions to our peers in the SLC. It's just that all SLC universities need more.

Work is moving ahead. College St. is now closed. I would assume permanently. Also whatever the name of the road that goes behind the stadium and connects with the Ag pond parking lot is closed too. So no more cutting through campus.

I got to come home to Lufkin this past week. I drove to Nacogdoches to visit the campus. It's the first time I've been on campus in probably 40 years. I was stunned at what I saw! The campus is just as beautiful as I remember. Lots of buildings gone, new ones in place, etc. I loved everything about it. I felt a rush of emotions as I walked the campus. My years at SFA were 4 of the happiest years of my life. I need to get back a lot more often..

Glad you made it. I try to get up to Nacogdoches at least 2X in the fall for football and 2X in the spring for basketball. In a couple of years the campus will be transformed!

The campus is vastly different from how it was just 11 years ago when I graduated! And for the better! SFA is transforming into a modern university while still keeping that charm we all fell in love with!

It's even more impressive after 6 for me. Pretty much a whole new era once the Theater building finished.

Kudos to the university for doing a wonderful job with the improvements and keeping true to "that charm." One example, I was there in the late 80's-90's and I remember how antiquated the UC felt then. I went back to see it after it was expanded and could not believe how nice it was/is. My daughter was in theatre right after those improvements were completed and I thought they did a beautiful job with it. I was in the Forestry building a few years back while one of my kids was getting advised and thought this place has absolutely not changed since I left...lo and behold it is now being rebuilt. Lots of exciting things going on at SFA! If they do only half of what is proposed, it will be impressive.
As a side, I have had to do numerous campus tours the last few years with my children as prospective students. I have actually had to go to freshman orientation at U of H, A@M and SFA. Proud to say that the best experience was at SFA, both tour and orientation.
