The Aggies are upping the ante in
the high-stakes competition to
attract the brightest of the bright stu
dents.
Texas A&M University now offers
scholarships based only on academic
achievement and is increasing the
value of its most prestigious award —
the President’s Endowed Scholar
ship.
Beginning next year, the Presi
dent’s Endowed Scholarship will in
clude an annual stipend of $2,000 for
a total of $8,000 for four years of
study. Currently it provides $1,500
per year to recipients chosen from
nominations by their high school
principals on the basis of academic
achievement, leadership qualities
and extracurricular activities.
In addition to the President’s En
dowed Scholarships, the University
last year instituted the academic
Lechner Fellows awards, to under
score its commitment to excellence
and to provide additional opportuni
ties for exceptionally bright stu
dents, Dr. Charles H. Samson Jr.,

A commitment to tradition.
Kent Caperton will do justice to the legends and traditions
of Texas A&M, and simultaneously add an invigorating spirit
to the Texas Senate.
Kent Caperton’s commitment to Texas A&M is undisput-
able. He is a former student body president of TAMU, and later
became an assistant to former A&M president. Jack Williams.
Kent has also taught at A&M as a visiting lecturer in the
College of Business.
Kent understands the problems which Texas A&M faces.
During the 1980’s, he will be the ideal person to articulate and
defend the needs of our university. He will fight to keep A&M
strong, and will zealously guard the Permanent University
Fund. Kent believes in A&M; he will work hard for its future.
The new decade calls for a new kind of senator, an intelli
gent, dedicated senator who represents the true feelings and
interests of A&M students, Kent Caperton is right for the job.
Kent Caperton is hard-working, forthright, and aggressive.
Texas A&M deserves no less.

“In short, Texas A&M is now
going after the brightest of the bright
students more diligently than ever
— in a manner not unlike that in
which it pursues ‘blue-chip’ football
players and star faculty,” Samson
said.
Texas A&M has ranked 14th na
tionally in attracting National Merit
Scholars, with 194 Merit scholars
during the 1979-80 school year. That
placed it fourth among the country’s
public colleges and universities and
first among such institutions in the
Southwest.
The University’s emergence as a
national leader in enrollment of
Merit scholars didn’t just happen,
said Vice President for Development
Dr. Robert L. Walker whose office
coordinates binding for the awards.
“There is a definite correlation be
tween the number of National Merit
Scholars and the number of Presi
dent’s Endowed Scholarships,” he
said. “The highly successful PES
program allows A&M to compete
with top schools throughout the na
tion for the best students.”
