Season’s Greetings from the Jackson School

December 15, 2025

As the year draws to a close, we want to share our heartfelt thanks with you. Your involvement through mentoring students, sharing expertise, offering internships, supporting academic programs and research, or simply staying connected continues to strengthen our community in meaningful ways. 

This year reminded us how special it is when alumni and friends come together. Through school gatherings and opportunities to learn, network, and engage with students and faculty, you helped create experiences that inspired students and celebrated the spirit of the Jackson School. 

We were especially grateful to share a milestone moment with you during our 20th Anniversary. From stories and smiles to memorable events on campus, it was a joyful reminder of how far we have come together. 

Most of all, we are thankful for the relationships that keep this community strong. As we look to the year ahead, we look forward to more ways to learn, connect, and support the next generation of Longhorn geoscientists. 

Wishing you a joyful holiday season and a bright new year to come,
