Brief History

The University of Texas NROTC Alumni Foundation is a Texas charitable corporation with 501(c)(19) status. It was originally organized in the early 1980s as an informal Alumni Association primarily concerned with hosting an annual Reunion and stirring up interest from the Alumni in forming a closer association with the NROTC Unit and its Battalion of midshipmen and officer candidates. By 2006 the organization had grown and so had its ties to the Battalion. Alumni wanted to create a more lasting organization that could help the Battalion with their activities that required group and team dynamics, such as the Buccaneer Drill Team and the Rifle and Pistol teams. This lead us to reorganize into a charitable organization so that our supporting alumni could make tax-deductible contributions along these lines. This, in turn, lead to the creation of an endowment in 2010, funded by life sponsorship donations, to help with this long-term vision of keeping the organization going long after the original organizers have departed the pattern. It is hoped that these endowment funds will never have to be touched and that earnings form it will continue to provide the seed money needed each year to plan for the Reunion and to financially assist the Battalion each semester with its team activities.

Meetings

The Alumni Foundation Board of Directors meets roughly once per quarter in the offices of the NROTC Unit on the UT campus. See the "Alumni Calendar" page for dates. These meetings are open to all the alumni from the unit, present and past staff and faculty members, and supporters of the Alumni Foundation. Highlights from past meetings are typically outlined in our newsletters. If an agenda is available for the next meeting you can get a copy by clicking here.
