Holiday Message
from President Crawford
Dear Texas Southern Family,
As the winter light softly illuminates our beautiful campus and the melody of holiday celebrations begin to resonate, I am overwhelmed with gratitude for the remarkable journey we have shared this year. From the moment I joined this incredible institution as the 14th President, your warm welcome elevated a professional task into a deeply personal calling. The energy of our students, our faculty’s dedication, our staff’s tireless commitment, and our TSU alumni's ever-increasing support has been the driving force behind every milestone achieved. Each breakthrough, each moment of connection, and each step forward reflects our collective strength and shared vision.
Looking toward 2025, I am filled with hope, excitement, and optimism for all we will accomplish together. I am deeply appreciative of the gift of trust you have given me. Texas Southern University will be a leading comprehensive metropolitan institution that does not merely educate, but rather transforms lives and powers the future. As we contemplate the events of the past six months and celebrate this season of giving, reflection, and praise I am inspired by what lies ahead for this institution. The potential for greatness residing at the heart of this University is immense. It is up to all of us to transform this potential into reality.
May your holidays be filled with peace, joy, and the warmth of loved ones, and may the Texas Southern University family continue to build, grow, dream, and achieve together. Our journey is just beginning!
James W. Crawford III
Vice Admiral, JAGC, U.S. Navy (Ret)

Why Give?
Gifts from alumni and friends of Texas Southern University allow us to fulfill our motto of Excellence in Achievement for our students. Your generosity and support are vital and make a profound difference in the lives of students, as well as individuals and businesses that benefit from the University's teaching, research, and public service programs. Without loyal donors like you, we cannot reduce the financial burdens that can threaten our students' ability to succeed academically.
While the Office of Development & Alumni Engagement plays a role in advancing TSU, the support of our alumni and friends makes it possible for TSU to confidently move forward in its quest to become one of the nation's premier metropolitan institutions of higher learning.
There is no TSU without you!
