Ron Mills, BancorpSouth senior vice president and regional manager, presents a $25,000 check from the Wayne Garrison Trust to Texas A&M-Texarkana President Emily Cutrer. The donation will be used to fund scholarships for students.
"Contributions like the generous donation we received from the Wayne Garrison Trust are instrumental in the success of our students," Cutrer said.
The university, celebrating 50 years as an institution, 25 years as a member of The Texas A&M University System and 10 years of breaking new ground, is working to raise $500,000 in scholarship donations to celebrate a half century in higher education.
