UT NROTC ALUMNI FOUNDATION, INC.

at the

 

UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT AUSTIN

In 2006, the active NROTC Alumni Association at UT Austin officially incorporated as a charitable corporation under Texas law after many years of informal activity as an association of UT NROTC Alumni. Originally organized in the early 1980’s by a group of dedicated Alumni, its objectives are now and have always been to promote the interests of the NROTC program, and to support the activities of the NROTC Unit, its staff, the members of the Battalion, and the Alumni.

 

The very active Board of Directors meets quarterly to handle ongoing projects. One such meeting is the annual alumni reunion which usually occurs on a Saturday in the fall of each year on a football weekend. That event, and other similar activities are advertised on these pages throughout the year. A detailed statement of the Alumni Foundation objectives can be found by clicking on “About Us”.

The current officers and Board of Directors of the Alumni Foundation also appear on these pages with links for email communication. They are all available to answer any questions you may have.

News and Recent Events

Attention: Naming the New COLA Building!!
Time is growing short on naming of the new COLA Building. It is not at all certain that it will retain the name of the old building it replaces (i.e. Russell A. Steindam Hall). Chances are very high that it won't. What do you think about that? We need to express our opinions to the University hierarchy in a timely, civil and respectful manner but we need to do it soon. See The Gouge for more info and get involved!

View from the East Mall on November 5, 2011 (Reunion Date) looking toward the new Student Activity Center (L) and looking at the Northeast Corner (R). Read the Building News & Updates on the COLA site.

New Book Just Published
John D. Boswell, Guest Speaker at the RAS Decommissioning has just published a new book that might be interesting to many of you. See The Gouge for more info.

Calendar Section Expanded
Under History is a selection called "Annual Calendars of Events". Click here or navigate to it. Years highlighted as links have some events already recorded in them. Those not highlighted need initial input. All could benefit from your recollections, diaries or journals. Send your list of events (with dates) to the Webmaster. This could provide a good backbone for someone writing the history of our unit and provide interesting browsing for others. Events should be related to the UT NROTC Unit or other events that affected our Unit (e.g. the end of the Draft or a War). Events should also involve the whole unit or a group of unit members (e.g. Buccaneers or Nesters).

Newsletter Changes Coming
The September 2011 newsletter was the last newsletter mailed out to all alumni for whom we have an up-to-date mailing address. It is also available on the "Newsletters" Page. The next newsletter will be in late February and will only be mailed out to donors of the Midshipmans Foundation or the Alumni Foundation. Others will be mailed notification that it is posted on this website.
