Funding the Future
Aggie alumni establish scholarship to support STEM students
Four friends have established the South Texas Four Endowed Scholarship at A&M-San Antonio to support South Texas high school students pursuing degrees in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM). The initiative includes a combined pledge of $25,000 over five years. Chuck Gregory, a senior principal and vice president at Terracon Consultants Inc., spearheaded the effort, rallying fellow Aggie alumni and professional engineers Kent O’Brien, Coy Armstrong, and John Metting to join him. All four grew up in South Texas and graduated from Texas A&M University in College Station. The scholarship provides local students with critical financial support to attend A&M–San Antonio, pursue their academic goals, and prepare for success in a fast-growing, high-demand career field.
