Dear Friends,

To say we are living in challenging economic times would be an understatement.

Like many states, Texas is facing significant challenges and state funding to higher

education is likely to continue to decline. Yet, it is more important than ever

for our universities to provide access to a world-class education that develops

the next generation of leaders.

The punch line is simple: At Mays, we rely more than ever on your generosity

to support our mission of creating knowledge and developing ethical leaders for a

global society. As you review this edition of Benefactor, it is easy to see how you

are allowing us to fulfill our mission by supporting the following important

strategic priorities:

• Recruit and retain world-class faculty: Outstanding scholars and teachers develop

the next generation of leaders. Through your commitments to establish Eminent

Scholar Chairs, Chairs, Professorships, and Fellowships, you provide us with

the ability to recognize the work of these outstanding individuals and attract

and retain them as Mays colleagues.

• Provide unique learning opportunities for undergraduate students: What sets

Mays apart is our ability to turn a large school (more than 5,000 students) into

a small, intimate learning environment. Whether through the Business Honors

Program, the Fellows Program, the Freshman Business Initiative, or a number

of programs designed by our departments, your generosity allows us to attract

top students to Mays Business School, create programs and opportunities that

expose them to contemporary business leaders and issues, and provide study

abroad opportunities and other important professional experiences.

• Enhance our MBA program: As our MBA program rankings and reputation

continue to climb, we are competing for students with the very best business

schools in the world. The ability to provide financial support for these students

is a critical component in their decision to attend Mays; without you, we would

not be able to attract these students to our school and expand the Mays brand

of excellence throughout the country and world.

As I look back on 2010 and forward to 2011, we have challenges ahead of us.

However, we are not alone in combating these challenges. Your support means

so much in the very best of times; it means even more in times like these. Please

know how much we appreciate your generosity and the significant role that you

play in any success that we achieve.

Sincerely,

Jerry R. Strawser

Dean

“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” – Helen Keller

The right movesOn and off the court, Alissa Lall ’11 shines.

WITH A SMILE AS BIg and bright as her future, this senior business honors and marketing

major delights audiences during basketball games, shares helpful advice with hopeful future Aggies, and provides leadership experience on campus—all while carrying a rigorous academic load.

Stellar scholars are a trademark of the Mays Business Honors Program. Lall is no exception. As a member of the Aggie Dance Team, the Student Retailing Association, the Zale Scholar Program and as a President’s Endowed Scholar (PES), Lall capitalizes on the bountiful opportunities afforded her.

She largely credits her success to her PES donor, David Norcom ’73, who majored in management and was recognized as a Mays Outstanding Alumnus in 2007. “It’s great to have a personal relationship with my donor,” Lall says. “He treats me like a daughter.”

Returning the admiration, Norcom says he is proud of his scholarship recipient. “Alissa always has a smile on her face,” he says. “She’s a pleasure to be around. Very smart, perfectionist and just a high-energy person in general.”

Thanks to his generosity, Lall can squeeze in time for friends and relaxation in the midst of her demanding academic and extracurricular schedule without struggling financially through college.

“It’s a lot of fun representing something that you love,” says Lall, who has fed marshmallows to alligators in Baton Rouge while on a dance team trip and ridden elephants in India with fellow business honors students.

Still, these experiences are squeezed into an academically demanding schedule. A PES requires a minimum SAT score of 1300, a minimum ACT score of 30, or be a semifinalist or commended National Merit scholar to be eligible. Once granted a PES, a student must maintain a cumulative 3.5 gPR or above throughout their academic career at Texas A&M. With a double major, this is no small feat.

Lall has been dancing competitively since she was 6. A Cypress native, she attended Cypress Fairbanks High

School and participated on the drill team, earning the spot of drill team colonel her senior year.

She has continued her passion for dance in college. A member of the Aggie Dance Team, Lall practices 10-12 hours a week and performs at up to three games a week during the regular basketball season. Lall says she loves being a part of the Aggie basketball family and meeting others who support the team.

As for her interest in business, she has always liked numbers and enjoys being creative, so she considers marketing the perfect blend of her passions.

Norcom’s benevolent presence in her life has encouraged her to give back. “I really want to be a donor, too,” she stresses, adding that serving the community

has been a big part of her A&M experience. Serving with the Junior Achievement Program, Lall visits local Bryan elementary schools to speak with young students about the benefits of studying. “We encourage them to work their hardest.” She also speaks with high school co-op students, offering them advice on professional dress for interviews and time-management skills. “We encourage them to prioritize and always keep a planner.”

As the end of her senior year draws near, Lall sees the future as a chance to employ all of the skill and experience she has acquired throughout her A&M experience.

“I’m ready to put all this knowledge to use,” she declares, adding that the transition from college life to the “real world” will be bittersweet. After four years as a successful, involved college student, she looks forward to continuing her path of investing herself in something she is truly passionate about. She has already received several job offers with the goal of a career in marketing or event planning for a professional sports organization.

As her graduation approaches, Lall’s resume is polished, and her future is as bright as her outlook on life. After dazzling fans, professors and peers alike, Lall is ready to shine on the next stage.

“It’s been such a rewarding experience. Here, I could do

anything I wanted to.”

“The value of a man resides in what he gives and not in what he is capable of receiving.” – Albert Einstein

Aggie mom endows business chair Proud Aggie parent

HALLIE VANDERHIDER SAYS SHE WILL forever be grateful to Mays Business School and the impact it has made on the life of her sons, Michael ’09 and Matthew ’09. That gratitude led her to make a $500,000 gift for Mays which will be matched by funds from school namesake Lowry Mays ’57 creating the Hallie Vanderhider Chair in Business.

Michael graduated in 2010 from the professional program and currently works for Deloitte, the same firm where his mother began her career. He recently told Vanderhider he felt “as prepared as anybody could be” for a career in accounting. He credits his success to the quality of the education he received at Mays.

Vanderhider, a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, is president and COO of Black Stone Minerals, an oil and gas company headquartered in Houston. She says that while UT is a fine school, she believes that the experience Michael had at A&M is unparalleled. Attending A&M has made a major impact on her son’s life, says Vanderhider, who notes that the caring faculty, mentors, and friends he found here have enabled his success.

“It changed his life in a way that I didn’t anticipate. It is wonderful to see your child succeed,” she says.

With that pride there is also a note of sadness. Michael’s twin, Matthew, studied business at Blinn College with the goal of getting in to A&M after improving his grades.

“From day one he said, ’I’m going to work really hard and I’m going to get into A&M.’ And he did,” says Vanderhider. By sophomore year, his 3.7 gPA was enough to make his dream a reality. Unfortunately, he passed away a few days after receiving his acceptance letter. “He never was able to attend, but that acceptance was, I think, the happiest moment of his life.”

While Michael coped with the loss of his brother, people at Mays were there to help him get through the semester. “Everyone in the business school was so good to him,” says Vanderhider. “It was like a family.”

“I will forever be grateful,” she says. “This is just one small way that I can give back.” Vanderhider intends for this gift to be only the beginning of her involvement at Mays, as she

“I will forever be grateful. This is just one small way that I can give back.”

has agreed to serve on the dean’s development council and will influence the programs and people of Mays through that channel.

She wanted her financial gift to support faculty for the trickle down affect that it has. “The ability to attract and retain top faculty is what makes or breaks a school…It allows you to attract top students, because they know they are going to get a tremendous education and exposure to some of the brightest people in the country or around the world. In order for the school to maintain its standards and continue to grow, they need the opportunity to attract top talent.”

Dean Strawser agrees. “Hallie Vanderhider’s most generous gift will have a significant and lasting impact on Mays,” he said. “Our faculty play such an important role in developing our students for their careers and lives and the ability to hire and retain the very best faculty is truly significant.”

Vanderhider has been with Black Stone since 2003. Previously she has held leadership roles with other energy companies as well as private equity.

“We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give.”– Winston Churchill

Aggie couple aims to benefit facultyOutstanding Alumni support faculty in giving

ACCOUNTINg gRADUATES ROBYN L. ’89 AND ALAN B. ROBERTS ’78 want to help Mays Business School maintain its reputation of excellence, so they committed $500,000 which, along with matching funds from school namesakes Peggy and Lowry Mays, will create the Robyn L. ’89 and Alan B. Roberts ’78 Chair in Business. This chair will be used to attract and retain top faculty members at Mays Business School.

The Roberts wanted to help the business school by supporting the teaching and research activities of Mays faculty. Both of the Aggies appreciate the education they received at A&M, as well as the networking they have been able to establish. Robyn also noted that the matching funds were an attractive feature. “You see your gift grow and get used that much faster,” she said.

“Hearing the needs and wanting to help Mays, we wanted to be able to support the great professors in their research and other endeavors,” she said. “That is a very important part of what makes Mays what it is. It is one of the things that makes Mays so prestigious and well-respected.”

The Roberts already have a track record of supporting Mays Business School. They provided $250,000 in 2007 to help fund the Robyn L. ’89 and Alan B. Roberts ’78 Business Honors Scholarship Program.

“Our school cannot thank Robyn and Alan enough for their generous support,” said Mays Dean Jerry Strawser. “By allowing us to attract top faculty members and Business Honors students to our school, their generosity will allow our programs to continue to be recognized among the very best in the world. We are most grateful for their generosity.”

Both accounting majors at A&M, Alan and Robyn had a true Aggie romance, starting when they met at a football game. They have two daughters, Jennifer and Allyson.

They were co-owners of Pumpco Inc, a pipeline construction and oilfield leasing company Alan founded in 1981. In 2007, Pumpco was named to the Aggie 100, the list of the top 100 fastest-growing Aggie-owned-or-operated businesses. In 2008, the Roberts sold the company to MasTec, Inc. of Coral gables, Fla. Alan Roberts remains as president of Pumpco.

“Being an Aggie is a way of life. And the Aggie way of life is to serve.”

“I have found that among its other benefits, giving liberates the soul of the giver.” – Maya Angelou

Taylor ’84 honored with gift to Mays, then matches it

ELIZABETH AND ANTHONY DELUCA ’84 and SCF PARTNERS have committed to a gift of $50,000 to create an endowment at Mays, which will honor long time associate and friend Cynthia (“Cindy”) Taylor ’84 by providing scholarships.

The Cynthia B. Taylor ’84 Endowed Scholarship will provide scholarships for full-time students in good standing pursuing a degree from Mays.

Anthony DeLuca is a managing director at SCF Partners, a private equity firm managing a portfolio of energy service companies. Based in Houston, Texas, the firm also has offices in Calgary, Alberta and Aberdeen, Scotland.

In 2000, SCF merged four of its holdings to become a new company, Oil States International, Inc. Taylor led the merger effort, combining the dissimilar business lines into one cohesive oilfield services company, then took the combined entity public via an IPO in 2001. She was appointed senior vice president and CFO of the newly created company, then became president and COO (eventually CEO) in 2006 and 2007.

“She’s truly an exceptional person and businesswoman,” said DeLuca. “The investment under her guidance has done exceedingly well.”

DeLuca said that he and SCF President L.E. Simmons have worked with Taylor for many years and both have high respect for her.

“We wanted to honor Cindy, at Texas A&M, because we think she is a shining example of a former student,” he said. “For any A&M student interested in business, whether male or female, she is a role model with traits we should all aspire to.”

DeLuca said they wanted to honor Taylor’s business achievements of serving as CEO and president of Oil States International, Inc., which he described as “a New York Stock Exchange company with revenues of $2.5 billion, and has an enterprise value of almost $5 billion.”

We are very proud to have worked with Cindy and were very excited to have made this modest gift to Mays in her honor.”

DeLuca said he and Simmons also have high respect for Mays, which DeLuca says they are happy to support. “We made the gift to Mays because it is such an impressive school, and a proud credit to Texas A&M and the state of Texas,” he said. “Institutions that really do a good job of educating their students, we want to make sure that they have all the support

possible so that they can continue.”

Simmons, whose son is a student at Mays, has been involved previously at the school: in 2008 he and his wife Virginia established a $100,000 fund for honors scholarships.

“We are most appreciative of the DeLucas’ generous commitment to our school,” said Dean Strawser. “Their support will allow us to continue to attract the very best students to our school and play a key role in supporting their education.”

Taylor was both humbled and honored to have the gift made in her honor. “I couldn’t be happier that the school is going to be the recipient of that gift,” she says. “My passion is for scholarships — to enable other students to have a great education and share the good experience that I’ve had at Texas A&M.”

Taylor matched the contributions made by the DeLucas and the Simmons.

“Dean Strawser’s leadership has been outstanding, and he has really transformed the business school,” she says. “I had planned to make a gift in support of undergraduate scholarships on my own. However, the leadership shown by the DeLuca’s and the Simmons’ allowed me the opportunity to match their generosity, making the scholarship gift even more meaningful.”

Taylor is sharing that positive experience with two of her sons, whom are students at Mays. Matt ’12 is an accounting major, and Chris ’14 is a business honors student. Taylor has a third son, greg, who is a sophomore in high school.

“Anthony (DeLuca) and his wife, Elizabeth, along with L.E. and ginny Simmons, are leaders in the Houston business community and are very generous with their support of the community, education and many other efforts,” Taylor explains. “They are to be commended.”

Though Taylor and DeLuca were both accounting majors of the same class year, they didn’t meet until Taylor went to work for SCF in 1999. Taylor gained experience in the energy industry while working at Ernst and Young. She moved to controller and then vice president at Cliffs Drilling Company before joining SCF as the CFO.

Taylor hopes to continue to give back to the university, both financially and with her time. “I feel as though my life was changed because of the strong education received and contacts made while I was at Texas A&M University,” she says.

“Think of giving not as a duty but as a privilege.”– John D. Rockefeller Jr.

Cox family’s affection for Mays apparent

THE IMPRINT OF KAY ’02 AND JERRY COx ’72 ON MAYS Business School—and on Texas A&M—is hard to miss. The pair has donated more than $2 million to Mays, and one of Mays’ buildings, Jerry and Kay Cox Hall, bears their name.

The Coxes say they wanted to continue their family tradition of supporting the school, so they created a fund to support the Business Honors Program. The $400,000 gift, which will be implemented over the next five years, will be used to provide scholarships to full-time students enrolled in the program.

“We just strongly believe in the business school and want to keep supporting the good things that are going on there,” Jerry Cox explains. “Kay and I believe that recruiting high-achieving students to the Mays Business Honors Program will benefit not only those students, but will positively impact all Mays students, programs and faculty.”

Jerry and Kay Cox Hall, completed in 2003, enhanced the classroom and office capacity of the business school. The Coxes gave $1.5 million toward the facility and 40 other former students and friends also contributed.

“I believe this sends a loud message to peer institutions and the business community that we are serious about excellence in business education,” Jerry Cox said at the time of the addition. “We don’t just want to move up in the rankings but desire to impact the business community. It’s not enough to just be successful in the business world. As Aggies, it’s not only our knowledge, but also our values and integrity, that set us apart.”

Cox Hall also contains the Reliant Energy Securities & Commodities Training Center, which was outfitted with the most up-to-date financial data and training equipment by a $3 million endowment by Reliant Energy, and the Cocanougher Special Events Center, named for former Dean Benton Cocanougher, who initiated the center’s construction, and his wife Dianne.

“It is impossible to be at Mays Business School and not feel the impact and affection of the Coxes,” said Dean Strawser. “Their generosity has significantly impacted our three most important strategic priorities: our faculty, our Business Honors Program, and our MBA Program. It is a rare donor that touches all of those areas and impacts them so meaningfully.”

Jerry Cox is president and chairman of Cox & Perkins Exploration Inc. in Houston.

He received a bachelor’s degree in finance from Texas A&M, a master’s degree in theological studies from Houston Baptist University and an honorary doctorate of laws from Pepperdine University. Kay Cox received a master’s in educational psychology from Texas A&M in 2002.

He was inducted into the Corps Hall of Honor in 2009 and has been honored as a distinguished alumnus by both the Mays Business School and The Association of Former Students.

He has been a major donor behind several enhancements of Texas A&M including the Cox-McFerrin Center for Aggie Basketball and the Jerry and Kay Cox Endowed Chair at the Mays Business School. Cox has served on many boards and committees at Texas A&M, including the Texas A&M Foundation, the Development Council at the Mays Business School and the Corps Development Council. He is a former director and president of the 12th Man Foundation and was the presiding chairman of the One Spirit One Vision campaign.

“No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave.” – Calvin Coolidge

WHEN gARY REgER ’73 WAS asked to choose a school to receive a gift in his honor from the Beaumont Foundation of America, he didn’t think long about his answer. The resulting $1 million contribution to Mays will be matched with surplus funds generated by Mays’ Center for Executive Development to establish the $2 million gary Neale Reger

Endowed Scholarship Fund for top students majoring in business honors.

“We are so thankful that Mr. Reger chose Texas A&M and Mays to benefit from this gift,” said Dean Strawser. “By supporting our Business Honors Program, this gift will help educate outstanding young persons whose actions and accomplishments will provide similar benefits to others in the future.”

Reger is a lawyer in Beaumont, Texas, where he primarily handles commercial litigation. The Beaumont Foundation is a nonprofit grant-making institution dedicated to enriching the lives and enhancing the futures of less fortunate children and youth, families, and the elderly. The foundation provides grants and

Beaumont Foundation of America honors Gary Reger ’73

scholarships to a broad range of charitable, religious, and educational organizations across the United States.

“I am blessed to have good friends who sit on the board of the foundation,” said Reger, naming board members Wayne Reaud, Jon Huntsman, and gilbert “Buddy” Low. “Wayne Reaud and the other board members have a strong commitment to education. They told me they wanted to honor me with one of their many educational scholarships, and together we chose A&M. It was the opportunity for me to give back in a meaningful way.”

“Supporting these students is very exciting to me,” he says. Reger plans to be involved with scholarship recipients in a mentoring capacity.

A&M is a family tradition for Reger, who has had several relatives join him in wearing maroon. To honor this legacy, the gift is dedicated to Reger’s parents, Doris and Ronald Reger ’48, whom Reger credits with his success. “My mother was the most rabid Aggie,” he says. “It was almost painful to watch football with her, she would get so excited.” Reger’s daughter Stephanie ’92 and sister Rhonda ’79 also are Aggies.

Reger and his wife, Joette, live in Beaumont and Austin. In addition to their support of A&M, they are also active with the Reaud Family Shelter, a hospitality house for the families of patients at Baptist Beaumont Hospital. Reger holds a degree in marketing from A&M and a law degree from the University of Texas.

Business Honors is a program and a major. Small classes are led by top-rated faculty who use discussion-driven lectures, case studies and the latest events in the business world as foundations for learning. Business honors students also have the opportunity to visit major corporations such as Boeing in Seattle.

“What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal.” – Albert Pike

HOUSTON BUSINESSMAN JOHN VANDERHIDER ’81 is helping future generations of Aggies come to Texas A&M. Vanderhider credits his education at A&M – a BBA in accounting – with proactively influencing the start of his career, and he wants others to enjoy a similar experience.

He is a partner at Opportune, an energy consulting firm

founded in 2005 by classmate David Baggett ’81 and named the fourth fastest-growing Aggie-owned or -operated business in the 2010 Aggie 100 program.

Vanderhider said the reputation of Texas A&M, and of Mays in particular, prompted him to donate $70,000 toward an endowed scholarship fund for full-time students enrolled in business honors at Mays. He also provided $12,500 toward the Mays MBA Advisory Board Fellowship.

“I really have always admired the moral integrity and values of Texas A&M,” he said. “I think it’s an outstanding institution, and my loyalties run deep. “

Vanderhider funds scholarship to ensure strong start for others

“John’s commitment will enhance the Mays experience for many,” said Dean Strawser. “His generous support of both our Business Honors Program and MBA Program will provide a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our students. His generosity will have a significant impact as we continue to move our programs forward among the very best.”

Vanderhider, a CPA, is in charge of the corporate finance group for Opportune, a Houston-based energy consulting firm with satellite offices in Denver and London, employing about 150 consultants.

He brings to the table 26 years of experience managing mergers and acquisitions, including nine years as a senior executive in industry. Prior to joining Opportune, he was CEO of The Dorato group, a transactional service firm focused on providing M&A-related due diligence and strategic consulting to assist in capital sourcing.

Vanderhider frequently visits Bryan and College Station to attend business functions but he expects another lure to attract him - he is ramping up his campaign to introduce his 16-year-old son to the virtues of his alma mater. He expects to bring him to several baseball games this spring.

“But even if my son doesn’t go to A&M, I admire the school and will always stay connected,” he said.

Business Honors students also visited Blue Bell Creameries in Brenham.

“The habit of giving only enhances the desire to give.”– Walt Whitman

“We cannot thank you enough for investing in us.”

I gREW UP IN CYPRESS, Texas, the youngest of three sons of god-fearing, hard-working and fun-loving parents. Though neither of my parents graduated from college, they always encouraged and expected us to excel academically and to pursue higher education. Like any good parents, they wanted me to have every opportunity that they didn’t.

I came to Texas A&M in the fall of 2007. As soon as I arrived on campus, I knew I had made the right decision. I don’t have to tell any of you about the Aggie Spirit, but I can tell you that it became a part of my spirit. During the spring of my first year, I took Dean Strawser’s honors accounting class. Among the many things I took away from that course, I learned that in business, it’s important to count things and keep track of them. Here’s what my ledger looks like for my time so far at Texas A&M:

In three and a half years, I have: attended 1,089 lectures; written over 500 pages of essays and case analyses; taken 124 exams; filled in over 3,000 Scantron bubbles; pulled 14 all-nighters; spent over 400 nights in a dorm; seen 29 $4 movies; played in over 50 intramural games; eaten at Chick-fil-A over 300 times; and gained 13 pounds.

I’ve also yelled over 800 yells and been to 33 baseball games at Olsen, 45 basketball games at Reed and 26 football games at Kyle Field.

I’ve had the pleasure of mentoring 12 freshmen as a business honors peer leader. I’ve given over 70 families of prospective students a tour as a business school staff; taught 68 students as a T.A. for Math 141; talked to 126 eight-graders in Corpus Christi about the value of higher education as part of Aggies

Thanking you for an Aggie Experience Eric Newman ’11 expresses his gratitude to donors

Reaching Out; visited the classrooms of 79 students in Bryan ISD with Junior Achievement; ministered to 92 junior high kids as a camp counselor; and raised over $60,000 to drill wells in parts of the world that don’t have access to clean water as president of The Wells Project.

As is usually the case, the things I can’t count are the things that really matter:

The quality of education and instruction I have received; the friendships I have formed and deepened; the opportunity for a brighter future than I have been

blessed with; and the pride of being a part of something bigger than myself.

I tell you these things not to bring attention to myself, but to bring attention to the gifts that have granted me the opportunity to have this thing we call the Aggie experience. The fact is that I wouldn’t be at Texas A&M if not for the scholarships I have received. Every student on scholarship has a story like mine, a life that would be drastically different if not for the scholarships they have received.

Every privilege comes with responsibility. I encourage my fellow students to think of scholarships not as gifts, but as investments. There is no greater motivating factor for me as a student, as a leader, and as an Aggie than knowing that I have been invested in. Be sure to live a life that is worthy of that investment. And be sure to remember the blessings you have received when you find yourself in a position to bless others.

Donors, we cannot thank you enough for investing in us. from a speech given at the mays 2010

Today, no major business school can achieve excellence without a combination

of funds from both the public and private sectors. That is why the unparalleled

loyalty and generosity of Mays Business School’s former students, friends and

corporate partners holds the key to our future.

We proudly recognize and thank the many former students, friends and

corporate partners who are dedicated to our vision for the future. Mays’ donors

help support our dedication to creating an environment of excellence that fosters

and sustains nationally recognized academic programs, outstanding faculty and

students, innovative learning facilities and successful former students.

This listing includes cash contributions received between January 1 and

December 31, 2010. It does not include total amounts pledged to the school.

Every effort has been made to ensure accuracy and completeness. If we have
