Support Organizations
Not only is LeTourneau University blessed with a professional staff of teachers and administrators who are paid to serve our student body, but we also have various groups of volunteers who delight in seeing you grow to reach your potential. These groups provide time, energy, and financial backing for special projects at the University.
President’s Circle
The President's Circle funds help provide student scholarships, buy library books, attract and
retain quality faculty, and assure excellence in our programs. President's Circle members
share four commitments:
1. A commitment to the mission and vision of LeTourneau University.
2. A commitment to pray for university students, faculty, and administration.
3. A commitment to spread the word about LeTourneau to their friends, colleagues, and
associates, as they have opportunity, including recommending high-quality students to the
university.
4. A commitment to support the university's unrestricted budget at a level appropriate
for their financial circumstances.
President's Circle memberships begin with an annual commitment of $1,000, payable monthly, quarterly, or annually. Chairman Level membership requires an annual gift of $5,000 or more. Founder Level membership requires an annual gift of $10,000 or more.
The benefits of membership include quarterly updates on campus news and events from the president; invitations to special campus events; invitations to events around the country where the president travels; a recognition certificate and acknowledgement in university publications; being a crucial part of God's plan for LeTourneau University; and knowledge that your investment will benefit the next generation of leaders.
GOLD President's Circle
The Gold (Graduates Of the Last Decade) President's Circle is exclusively for our young graduates. They make the same four commitments and have the same benefits as President Circle Members but have the following entry points:
- 1-3 years out $100.00
- 4-5 years out $250.00
- 6-8 years out $500.00
- 9-10 years out $750.00
- (Full membership into the President's Circle begins with an annual gift of $1,000)
The Alumni Association
One of the most valuable groups of supporters that any school possesses is the alumni.
While many people believe that you have to graduate from LeTourneau University to be in this
association, membership is available to all graduates and former students who have
successfully completed at least one semester at the University. Many of our alumni return to
the campus each year to attend athletic events, seminars, banquets, homecoming, and other
activities.
Off campus events for alumni are often arranged by state or area alumni chapters to provide
fellowship, renewal of friendships, and informative updates about the LeTourneau University of
today. Our alumni are often our best sources of prospective students, goodwill, and the
financial resources that help the University move forward.
LeTourneau University President’s Advisory Council
Members of the LeTourneau University President’s Advisory Council are business and community leaders dedicated to preserving the values of private enterprise as they are reflected in independent higher education. The Council serves in an advisory role to the President, actively exchanging ideas and information with the administration, faculty, and students. This group serves to harness the forces of private enterprise in order to strengthen the programs of the University and help us be responsive to current developments in business, industry, and the professions.
LeTourneau University Parents Council
The LeTourneau University Parents Council informs parents of available programs and services,
stimulates enthusiasm for LeTourneau in local churches and communities, and acts as a liaison
between parents and the University community. Membership is open to all parents or guardians
of current or former students.
