Good Morning Dustdevils,
It was great to see our students back on campus during the first week of classes. One of the highlights for me was spending time greeting students and giving golf cart rides to Dustdevils headed to class. These moments remind me that Texas A&M International University is not just a place of learning, but a community, and I am grateful to begin another semester alongside our engaged, energetic campus community.

Data Privacy Week Happening at TAMIU Jan. 26 - 30
TAMIU has announced its committment to Data Privacy by registering as a Data Privacy Week Champion. As a Champion, TAMIU recognizes and supports the principle that all organizations share the responsibility of being conscientious stewards of personal information. Data Privacy Week is an annual expanded effort from Data Privacy Day -- taking place from January 26 - 30, 2026.
