South Texas Chapter

Want to Get Involved?  
We’re always looking for passionate Bulldogs to join our volunteer team!  
Your South Texas Chapter of the Mississippi State University Alumni Association needs some “True Maroon” volunteers to help build a strong Bulldog presence in and around Austin, San Marcos, New Braunfels, and San Antonio. 

So, what exactly is a chapter’s role with the MSU Alumni Association?  
Basically, a chapter becomes "Mississippi State" in its community. The interest you stimulate, the service you provide, and the information you collect and disseminate helps the university, the community and the chapter members. Not only are you keeping your local alumni and Bulldog friends connected through communication, activities and events, you are recruiting prospective students.  

The MSU Alumni Association is working to establish an organized and enthusiastic connection for our alumni, friends, and students.  If you are interested in learning how you can help spread the Maroon and White, share your ideas, learn more about the chapter, volunteer for service, or just show your support, please contact Janet Downey, Coordinator of Volunteer Engagement, MSU Alumni Association, jdowney@alumni.msstate.edu or 662.325.8515 

How can you help?  

• Volunteers for leadership opportunities (options) – Finances, Communications/Social Media, Community Service, Social Events, Student Recruiting, Send-Off Party, Young Alumni, Senior/Retired Alumni, Fundraising  

• Possible activities – happy hour, fellowship dinner/supper club, Sunday casual gathering, Saturday coffee meet up, athletic game-watch gathering; community service activity, family outing, writing note cards to prospective students. The possibilities are endless.  

• Chapter Goals/Initiatives – engaging all Bulldogs, community service, recruiting students in your area, supporting scholarships to MSU.  

If you're an alumnus or friend of MSU who lives in the South Texas area, based on your mailing address with the MSU Alumni Association, you're automatically a member of this chapter. An annual gift to Mississippi State made through the MSU Foundation makes you an active member of the MSU Alumni Association and the South Texas Chapter.

Financial support is important to the success of the South Texas Chapter and can be made through the MSU Foundation.
