A Message from the President
Thank you,
citizens of Palestine, Texas, and students of Anderson and adjoining
counties for your support of The University of Texas at Tyler Palestine
Campus. Your encouragement and efforts, combined with the talent
and dedication of our faculty, have assured that this campus will
take its place among the best educational institutions anywhere.
Because of
the endowment of the Memorial Hospital Foundation and the foresight
of the Chairman of the Board, Dr. Lee Roy Mathis, students can apply
for excellent endowed scholarships. Because of the success of live
classes and interactive video technology, students on this campus
have access to resources of The University of Texas at Tyler which
includes: degrees in nursing and business and classes in technology,
health and kinesiology and liberal arts. And, because providing
quality higher education is our priority, all the elements are in
place to students to pursue excellence in education at this campus.
The campuses
of The University of Texas at Tyler exist to improve the lives of
people and raise the standard of living in East Texas. Educating
students, conducting research, providing cultural benefits, helping
attract industry, and engaging in meaningful public outreach to
those in need serve to accomplish its mission. This university is
truly a Rising Star in Higher Education and is shining brightly
in Palestine, Texas!

H. Mabry
