Leadership
Community leaders and members play an essential role in raising funds for our Friends of the University
annual campaign for student scholarships. This campaign is about supporting dreams -- not only those of our
incoming and current students, but also those we share for strong schools, thriving businesses, and solid families in the Coastal Bend area.
Community Message
I want to thank the residents of this community who have been so generous with their time, effort
and donations toward the goal of making the University of Houston-Victoria a destination university.
As a comprehensive university, UHV benefits the Victoria area in many ways. It draws new
students, and new faculty and staff to the area. It expands cultural events and activities. And it
strengthens the professional workforce and economy.
But our work is just beginning. We continue to need your financial support for our Friends of the
University annual campaign to provide scholarships for deserving students. You can make a difference
for our students and be part of the wider effort to make a difference for the entire Crossroads Region.
Sincerely,
Dr. Phil Castille
UHV President
