From the Chancellor: Billion-Dollar Campaign to Provide for the Future

Chancellor Victor J. Boschini, Jr.

For nearly 150 years, Texas Christian University has prepared students for life. Now it’s time to prepare our university for the students of the future and the difference they’ll make in the world.

TCU is at an exciting crossroads. Over the past two decades, we’ve made astonishing progress in elevating our academic profile by strengthening our programs and adding 32 new endowed faculty positions to our stellar faculty. We’ve taken our place on the national stage through Fulbright and Rhodes scholar nominees, exceptional rankings and facilities, and athletic achievement. This year we welcomed the inaugural class of the most innovative medical school in the nation. Our campus culture becomes richer, more inclusive and more connective each semester. And stories of our amazing alumni continue to inspire.

True to our mission, we’ve reimagined the TCU experience to create extraordinary lifelong learners prepared to meet the challenges of a changing world. And the time to build upon this powerful momentum is now. Lead On: A Campaign for TCU will allow us to invest in human potential for the greater good for generations to come.

Our new billion-dollar campaign seeks philanthropic investment proportionate to our loftiest goals and broadest ambitions. It gives me great hope, pride and satisfaction to think about magnifying the TCU mission for the approaching 150 years. Generous believers in TCU have already committed more than $621 million, including $209 million for the endowment.

Strengthening our endowment is paramount to the future as we seek out the most passionate teacher-scholars and bright, talented students. It can help make the TCU experience an affordable reality for every deserving student who qualifies and for whom becoming a Horned Frog is a dream.

This institution was created with a bold vision fueled by great passion and humble resources. Just look at what that vision has become and what the university has achieved in the most recent generation. We can all dare to imagine what this next century holds.

TCU students, faculty, programs and alumni are making meaningful change in the world as we build on this legacy. With support from the community and the Horned Frog family, we take the lead on an incredible future. Please accept my heartfelt thanks for supporting TCU!

Go Frogs,

Victor J. Boschini, Jr.

10th Chancellor
