It’s official: The University of Houston-Victoria soon will become Texas A&M University–Victoria, the 12th university in The Texas A&M University System. Following the end of the governor’s signing period, the A&M System today announced the historic transition — a move years in the making and backed by overwhelming legislative support.
As part of this milestone, Texas A&M University System Chancellor John Sharp also announced that Texas A&M University-Victoria received $25 million in the new state budget for the effort, and commended the work of Victoria-area State Senator Lois W. Kolkhorst in the Senate Finance Committee for securing the funds needed to grow the university and its services to the region.
