Alumni and Friends
The Texas A&M University Texarkana Alumni are strong and growing! The mission of the Texas A&M University Texarkana Alumni Association is to serve as a liaison between the University and the community by building relationships, financial support and recognition for graduates, faculty, and staff now and in the future.
The Women for A&M Texarkana is a dynamic group of individuals working to enhance the economic development, cultural enrichment and funding initiatives for scholarships and degree programs at A&M Texarkana. Membership provides you with the opportunity to connect with strong leaders and support the mission and vision of A&M Texarkana.
Office of Alumni Relations
The Office of Alumni Relations provides services to numerous A&M Texarkana graduates. This office encourages a continuing affiliation with the University. The progress of A&M Texarkana graduates is tracked through alumni communications and surveys. The University measures its success, in part, by determining the effect of an A&M Texarkana degree on the careers of its alumni. The Office of Alumni Relations works very closely with the Alumni Association which is an independent incorporated organization.
“When you’re doing your best, you’re doing good.”
Sharda James carried that lesson from her days as a mass communication student at A&M Texarkana into her career as a reporter for the Texarkana Gazette. Today, she tells the stories of her community while drawing on the relationships, encouragement, and experiences that helped shape her and turn her passion for people and storytelling into a career.
After a personal journey that deepened her empathy for others, Emma Beck steps into her classroom ready to remind both herself and her students of one simple truth: it's okay to not have everything figured out.
“I knew earning my degree would create opportunities within the University.” Sarah Newman knows firsthand the value of a college education and as she looks forward to the future in her new role on A&M Texarkana’s campus, she’s even more proud to be “part of the team.”
