BANQUET ON TEXAS INDEPENDENCE DAY
ALUMNI BROTHERS GATHER IN AUSTIN
Over 100 alumni brothers gathered in Austin
for Founders Day Weekend 2019, held March
1
st
– 3
rd
. The weekend started with a barbecue
and music at the house, plus many brothers
attending the Texas vs. LSU baseball game on
Friday. On Saturday morning a distinguished
group of alumni brothers volunteered their time
for a career panel event creating interaction with
undergraduate brothers.
Saturday evening's banquet featured
undergraduate and alumni brothers being
honored for their service to Texas Alpha. The
weekend concluded with Texas sweeping LSU
with a walk-off single in the 9th inning.
It was a wonderful weekend and we hope even more
brothers will join us for Founders Day next year!
