Life Endowments

BECOME A LIFE MEMBER TODAY!

Each new Life Member gift of $10,000 or greater establishes a Friends of Alec Excellence Fund. A Life Member gift creates an endowment which means the principal is never spent, only the earned interest. As long as the Cockrell School of Engineering exists, Friends of Alec Life Member Excellence Funds continue giving in the donor's name.

Most Friends of Alec Life Excellence Funds have been established using corporate matching gifts. Alumni may pay their Life Member Endowment over a period of up to four years, taking full advantage of their corporate match. If you are interested in establishing a Friends of Alec Life Member Endowment, please contact Friends of Alec at (512) 475-6792 for a brochure and more details explaining the fund.

In the past, all Life Member Endowments have been used to support scholarships. Endowments may now be established to benefit any department and some programs. See the Designations List for details.
