One of our Graduate Academic Advisors (Sarah Y.) participated in the Maroon and White Fun Run on Sunday, May 17, 2026, at Aggie Park! Net proceeds from this event benefit the TAMU Staff Emergency Fund, held at the Texas A&M Foundation. The Staff Emergency Fund provides limited assistance to TAMU staff members experiencing a temporary hardship due to a significant life event.

Congratulations, Sarah! The Office of Extended Education is proud of you for supporting this important cause.
