Texas State President Denise Trauth announced Friday, April 24, that Jerry and Linda Fields of Houston have donated $1 million to support the Department of Athletics at Texas State University.
"Jerry and Linda Fields are alumni, generous donors and dear friends of this university," said Trauth. "Their support has helped us achieve new standards of excellence, and their continuing generosity and work on behalf of Texas State serve to further brighten our future."
The Fieldses are among Texas State's most generous benefactors. Their recent gift brings their total contributions to Texas State to approximately $3.8 million. They are co-chairs of Texas State's Pride in Action fund-raising campaign. The campaign has five pillars: academic excellence, a new performing arts center, an alumni center, athletics and the university library.
In the past, they have donated $2.8 million in support of academic excellence, the alumni center and athletics.
