In
Memory of Regent A.W. Riter Jr.
 A
wreath is placed in the arch of the Riter Millennium Carillon
Tower in honor of Regent A.W. “Dub’’ Riter
Jr., who passed away last week. Regent Riter served as a distinguished
member of the UT System Board of Regents since 1997. A passionate
supporter of UT Tyler, Regent Riter’s “loving
handprint was on almost every campus project we have undertaken
in recent years,’’ UT Tyler President Rodney Mabry
said. Regent Riter and his wife, Betty Jo, donated a gift
to create the UT Tyler carillon tower and plaza. A memorial
ceremony is being planned to enable members of the campus
community to share their thoughts about Regent Riter. Large
