Students are the reason we give

Staff perspective

Mary Bailey Estes (’70, ’01), Coordinator of IMPACT Alternative Certification Program in Special Education

"I give to my university to support deserving students, to support the alumni association, and to honor extraordinary individuals who have brought honor to UNT.

That is why I helped raise funds for the Lyndal M. Bullock Special Education Scholarship, why I worked with the Division of Advancement to establish the Nancy Walker Patton Green Jacket Scholarship, and why I have contributed to the alumni pavilion project at our new football stadium."

"By supporting the alumni association, you help make unique and memorable student experiences possible.

I was proud to receive my class ring as a symbol of the education I received at UNT. The ring presentation ceremony is a great tradition. In the future, my class ring will signify the experiences I've had and the education I've gained.

Donations to the alumni association support traditions that celebrate UNT graduates and their achievements."
