SHSU Agriculture Alumni Association

Founded in 1986, the Sam Houston State University Agricultural Alumni Association is one of several alumni associations at Sam Houston State University. In the spring of 1993 a Constitution and By-Laws were approved for the association.

The Association's founding purpose was to provide support for the programs and students of the SHSU Department of Agricultural and Industrial Sciences , a purpose that still serves as the guide for all events and endeavors of the Association.

Association Background
