Annual Fund Student Callers Recognized for Fundraising Efforts

Students from the Office of Annual Giving Programs were recognized for their fundraising efforts by Texas Tech University System Chancellor Kent Hance during the Texas Tech University men’s basketball game against Texas A&M University at the United Spirit Arena on Jan. 16.

Eleven high-performing student callers and managers were guests in the chancellor’s suite where they watched the Red Raider’s historic win over the Aggies that netted head coach Bob Knight his 900th career victory.

“Our student callers and managers are vital to the work we do at annual giving to connect alumni with the great things happening here at Texas Tech,” said Deborah Finlayson, senior director of annual giving programs. “Events like this one recognize the important work our student callers do to enlist financial support for so many programs across the Texas Tech University System.”
