Dear Friends of UHV,
Although the University of Houston-Victoria got off to a bit of a rocky start in 2017-2018 because of Hurricane Harvey, we came together to recover and ended up having an inspiring year filled with growth and success. Our online annual report makes information about the year available to a wide audience and allows us to feature videos and highlights from the Nov. 13 President’s Annual Report & Excellence Awards event.

Message from the President cont.
Here are just a few of our highlights from 2017-2018:
- We established the UHV Relief Fund to assist our students impacted by Hurricane Harvey. Thanks to a $100,000 donation from the Rebuild Texas Fund; significant gifts from Communities Foundation of Texas, the Albert E. & Myrtle Gunn York Trust and Scholarship America; and donations from UHV employees, alumni, friends and other organizations, the university was able to award a total of $123,193 to 211 students and continues to provide aid to students with financial hardships because of the hurricane.
- We broke ground in Victoria on the three-story, 272-bed Don & Mona Smith Hall, our new residence hall slated for completion in fall 2019.
- The university joined leaders from the University of Houston for a groundbreaking ceremony for UH Katy, an 80,000-square-foot building at the northeast corner of Grand Parkway and Interstate 10 that will offer both UH and UHV degree programs when it opens in fall 2019.
- UHV celebrated with a “topping out” ceremony of University Commons, the university’s first student center. University Commons also will include a modern library and is set to open in spring 2019 in Victoria.
- The university unveiled its first alma mater, which started as a Student Government Association initiative but grew to involve faculty, staff and alumni working together to develop the school song.
- Readers of the Katy Times newspaper voted UHV the Best College in Katy for the third year in a row.
- The Bennett-Wood Family donated 65 acres of land to UHV near the Victoria Regional Airport for the future location of an athletics complex.
- We launched the public phase of the UHV Here, We Go fundraising campaign with the announcement of an $839,775 donation from the M.G. and Lillie A. Johnson Foundation and raised a total of $1,995,108 by the end of the fiscal year, an all-time fundraising record for UHV in one year.
- Numerous national organizations ranked UHV for our affordable and quality online degree programs.
Because of the start of the school year and all the obstacles we overcame with your help to have a successful year, our theme for the annual report is Together We Can.
As you look through this website, be sure to view the short videos featuring students, faculty, alumni and community members talking about how UHV has made a difference in their lives. You also will see photos from the annual report dinner and videos of our special recognition award recipients.
As I look at the changes UHV is undergoing, I am very thankful for the support we have from Victoria and the region. Without our students, faculty and staff, our generous donors and our supportive community, these accomplishments would not have been possible. Remember, Together We Can make a difference.
Sincerely,
Robert K. Glenn
