I'll be making the drive in from the ranch (near Fort Stockton) for this Saturday's K-State game.

Brian graciously has allowed me to set up at one of the tables at the SicEm365 Tailgate to get any Baylor graduates to sign my nomination form to get me on the ballot for the Alumni-elected regent on the BOR.

The qualifications and processes are listed here. https://alumniregents.web.baylor.edu/schedule-and-process/nominations

I am almost there, having received more than 35 signatures and a letter from my pastor.
If some of you can drop by and sign the form, I will be most appreciative.

Your signature will only get me ON THE BALLOT. I still must win an election of Baylor alumns.

I am running for this spot because I believe the BOR needs more "regular people" on it. Right now it is pretty top heavy with mega donors and preachers. Nothing wrong with that. However, there are thousands of Baylor alumni like myself who graduated BU, but didn't enter into a high-paying profession so our donations are limited. However, we love Baylor, and would like to contribute in some way.

I'm inspired to do this by my late brother, a 1976 grad who became a teacher in the DISD for more than 30 years, and was named Teacher of the Year. He didn't make bank, but he positively influenced a ton of kids, and represented Baylor in a proud manner. I know that there are many more like him who make a difference, but can't write a large check to their alma mater.

So, if you want to help, drop by the SicEm365 Tailgate this Saturday, and look for the guy in the cowboy hat (silver belly).

See you there, and Sic 'em!!!

(Thanks, Brian)

I certainly hope that you and a few more halfway common folks can manage to get on the board. You may not do any better but..............maybe I better leave it at that.

First you gotta show up.
At least I'll be there.
I hope to make the cut!!!

Glad you're trying and your reasoning are great

youre probably too qualified, but I'd donate.

And regular people? I wish.

Let's just start with SANE.

You're in!

Let me add that I ALSO believe the BOR needs a rep from West of the Pecos.
Don't forget that the Kokernots (as in in Kokernot Hall) are from Alpine, just down the road from me.
So............
I'll be at the SicEm365 Tailgate on Saturday. If you are a Baylor grad, come by and sign the nomination form for me.
IF I get on the ballot, the rules say I can do no campaigning, so this is pretty much it.
Just want to make the cut, then let the chips fall where they may.

See you on Saturday.
And thanks again to Brian for letting me do this at his party.

Update: I am currently at 30 signatures.
Only need 20 more.
See you at the SicEm365 Tailgate tomorrow.
I will appreciate your help.

Sic 'em!!!

Update?
I was late getting thereis there a way to sign online?

Yes, there is.
HOWEVER !!!!
I hit my 50-signature mark on Saturday at the tailgate.
Thank you to everyone who signed the form for me.

Per the rules, IF my name gets on the ballot, I cannot campaign for the job.
So remember me now, and check my name when you receive your ballot by email.

Thanks to Brian for allowing me to do this, and thanks to all who helped.
I'll submit my documents and let you know how it goes.
