Hill Country University Center’s opportunitie$
The Hill Country University Center in Fredericksburg, Texas Mary.Little@HCUCenter.org;
1-’18: Doss School Administrator Gwen Stockbridge: GStockbridge@Doss.TxEd.Net through Jane Woellhof, Gillespie County Country Schools
Forging bright, prosperous Futures for youth, families, enterprises & communities throughout the Hill Country
Proactively & effectively attracting, maximizing & leveraging enterprise-opportunities & revenue streams that provide ever-increasing financial support for the HCUC
Inspiring academic, career-development, community enrichment
Ensuring in perpetuity a solid financial foundation for operational needs
Leveraging assets for mutually beneficial opportunities
Overview In 2001 Texas Tech University came to the Texas Hill Country, an area that represented the largest underserved population in the State of Texas for higher education. Hill Country-area leaders & the City of Fredericksburg had harbored a strong desire for higher education. They have supported the higher-education effort to the extent possible — including utilization of city land where the community-funded Hill Country University Center resides. In the early HCUC years, the State of Texas provided a special line item that supported, in part, TTU campuses in Fredericksburg & Marble Falls.
Personal Perspectives People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. THEREFORE consider an on-going, friend-making, in-person strategy: offer to treat folks to a cup of coffee & to hear their ideas for 15 min. max.
to show communities that the HCUC cares about them / values them — by visiting sites within each community in the HCUC geographical service area at least semi-annually & hosting a speed-networking luncheon semi-annually in selected communities – in order to
Get acquainted with formal & informal leaders through each community:
Proactively discover new friends & their opinions & perspectives about each town’s goals, needs & assets
Generously offer HCUC resources that may help communities achieve their goals & update the offers & opportunities based on input from new friends throughout HCUC service area
How to get started
Design a one-page, two-sided, full-color, card-stock document with handy, helpful resources
Challenge readers to help themselves to the resources in terms of wherever they work, worship, volunteer, learn, play or thrive: i.e., in all dimensions of their lives
- Include Kim’s photo, contact information & her offers to speak at trainings, meetings, seminars (city council, leadership programs, parents or faith-based gatherings; graduations, celebrations; career days; weekly or monthly meetings of local Rotary, Lions, Kiwanis, Optimists, Zonta, etc. organizations)
- Suggest HCUC as everyone’s “home base” for reunions, celebrations, memorials, learning, training; providing their services as a trainer or facilitator
- Include the half-dozen HCUC endowments at the Community Foundation
- Coordinate photo opportunities when HCUC / CF grants / HCUC scholarships are awarded &/or include a special-invitation reception for honorees prior to HCUC May graduation ceremonies
- Include Workforce Commission contact information! Why? Help with resume-writing, interview skills, MONEY for certain income-level students going into high-priority technical / career areas
- Include Community Foundation contact information: to relieve school districts from having to be responsible for time-consuming Booster Club accounting requirements; to provide consultancy services if families want to memorialize or honor a deceased student, teacher, beloved staff member, etc.
- Suggest rental of HCUC room(s): for family school or family reunions, school or memorial events, weddings? Photo opportunities for brides-to-be, graduations; etc. business-training or retreat site
- Invite schools’ counselors to nominate 3 sophomores & 3 juniors to complete for 15 slots – to serve as ushers, greeters & helpers during all TX Tech graduation ceremonies (or OLLI events or Rotary or community events or Career Fairs, etc. at the HCUC, etc.)
- Invite student, teacher, staff & administrators’ organizations to submit to HCUC opportunities to purchase advertising space in yearbooks, student newspapers, graduation fliers, co-sponsor “Best wishes photos in local newspapers – of all graduating seniors at each high school; booster-club publications, Parent Teacher Association / parents’ groups, local Chamber of Commerce, etc.
Take along HCUC- &/or TTU- &/or CTC-branded mementos for folks willing to meet with you – find out how many more items they would like to have for students, colleagues, family, etc.
Visit FBG Convention & Visitors Bureau & get their feedback about your handout, mementos, how to improve 10-min. visit, handout; whether you could get HCUC information included in all incoming conferences’ & conventions’ goodie-bags
Schools & school districts within the geographical area: get how-to advice from EricW@FISD.org
Whom to visit first; why, when & how to network with administrative personnel, housekeepers, bus drivers; willing, positive counselors, teachers, staff – for 10 min. maximum during their regular meetings? One-on-one as their & your time allow. What HCUC can offer to schools, school districts: TTU resources, CTC resources – including Phi Theta Kappa honor society connections; meaningful connections with Rotary’s youth programs & other service clubs (that can provide volunteers, donors, judges, advocates, prospective school-board members, Reality Check kits @$500 per school for on-going use; etc.) Offer to hang each school’s banner within HCUC Hall of Fame (within snack-bar area on main floor or upstairs?) Office-supply closets, volunteers for on-going &/or special events. Get HCUC onto Pokeman GO & other geo-caching games – to find their school banner within HCUC, etc. Find out from TX Tech Athletics what HCUC can legally offer to schools (given NCAA rules): posters, banners, visits by the Masked Ride & horse, cheer squad, mascot(s), pom squad; drill team, etc. — & if such visits can happen, then pleasepleaseplease remind all TX Tech athletes to tell young students that the athletes are TX Tech students, what their academic majors are, what their professional & career plans are – otherwise, the young student will be clueless that the athletes are also STUDENTS who do well in class & aspire to their own careers (not just the NFL) after athletics
Create exciting festivals &/or fun contests, recruit volunteer judges & award HCUC- / CTCD- & TTU-branded prizes to winners (invite parents, grandparents, families to the awards ceremony)
Answer two questions on the CTCD &/or TTU applications Design a front page for HCUC Web site Write an essay about the meaning of Rotary’s 4-Way Test Envision their life-long success as a family legacy Student art to display throughout HCUC
Come to college today! Invite folks to volunteer at HCUC (to boost their resume; job, college & scholarship applications) & suggest various kinds of duties: tours, welcome, guides to the appropriate room; set up & run Reality Check experiential-learning exercises (for 5th graders & older – including adults) at area schools or during visits to HCUC; etc.
Create & prepare thank-you goodie bags for area schools’ bus drivers, counselors, teachers, staff members, parents, cooks, housekeepers
Add others’ resources to your ever-growing HCUC list of resources
Routinely ask for other school districts’ or organizations’ top three points of pride & their top three most unusual resources (e.g., FISD tiny houses; robotics competition, dual credit with mileage reimbursement; “soft skills” successes; etc.)
Your perpetual-motion, friend-making Strategy
IF you like the person you just met with, ask them for two or three of their most-admired, most-trusted colleagues … & their contact information … for you to visit next – to share your resources & to learn from their wisdom. Ask if you may say that your new friend had referred you to them.
Where to visit in each town?
Leaders / superintendents of public & private schools / school districts & get their “next step” recommendations about which school(s) & which personnel to briefly meet with
Law enforcement: they would love for HCUC to sponsor police-academy training! They know which local youth organizations & faith-based sites are effective with youth
Three top non-profits in town that work with youth or adults aspiring to better themselves Three top faith-based organizations in town Public libraries, tourism & chambers of commerce organizations
On-going friend-making & friend-keeping habits
Clip-&-mail positive information from local newspaper(s) to schools – whenever they & their students are mentioned positively
Compare the strategies (above) to ideas that a 15-min. chat with Ernie Loeffler or Tim Lemert or Penny McBride might offer to you – about creating perpetual, abundant revenue streams for HCUC

2017 members of the TFCC and I have decided to sell t-shirts! I designed a few, and this is the one the group picked. I was hoping you could help me by spreading the word to any friends you may have that love cats! The shirts are $15 each and we have a goal of selling 50, so far we have sold 27! This website in particular is awesome because I was able to design a shirt on four different colors and in two different styles, so there is something for everyone! The fund raiser goes through April 25, & orders will be shipped around May 8th. Here is the link to the fundraiser: https://www.bonfire.com/tech-feral-cat-coalition/
| Also, we have a Facebook! Please feel free to like us, and share our posts! I plan on using the page for informative TNR posts as well as keeping a log of the cats we capture and release while I try to find a friend who can make us a website! Here is a link that will take you directly to our page: https://www.facebook.com/TechFeralCatCoalition/ | Tech Feral Cat Coalition

A few more updates
- The TFCC is hosting a table at the Eco-Fair in the Student Union Building on April 24th from 11 to 12:30. We will be passing out flyers, informing the general student body about what we do and how they can help, and giving out Life Savers (because we save lives.) If you’re around, feel free to stop by!
- The group has decided to help Tech even more by planting a plot during Arbor Day on April 28th! We are very excited! Once again, if you happen to be around that day, stop by and see us!
- If you cannot make it to these events, don’t worry! I will post pictures on our Facebook, and e-mail them to anyone that wants them!
- I am currently in the process of partnering with the Tech Activities Board to host a pet food drive next semester, stay tuned!
- I am moving into a house in May, and I will be here all summer to help! I am taking a summer class and planning Homecoming week, but I will be available to check feeders, traps, and anything else that needs done! I was thinking maybe we could have a table at a few of the New Student Orientations during the month of June!
from Tech Feral Cat Coalition Pres. Warren, 7-16-’16: I think working concession stands would be so fun! I do not really want to work during football games, but I would love to work any other time! That is such an easy way to make money, especially once we get more new members! If we get a few people going regularly, I think we could earn a lot of money!
Fundraising Opportunity For Non-Profit Groups/Organizations job in Lubbock – JobSpotOnline.com … http://jobs.jobspotonline.com/job/20055462/q-Food%20Counter%20Attendant-l-Lubbock?source=1
Spectra Food Service is looking for Non-Profit Organizations that would like to earn money by volunteering to work in concession stand during TTU sporting events, concerts & other special events. Organizations are paid a commission on their nets sales from each event. This posting is for Non-Profit-Organizations Only. This is an outstanding fundraising opportunity for any NPO (501(C)3) who is interested in raising money for their organization/cause.
I also signed us up for a table at the 2016 Student Organization Fair during Welcome Week! The fair is on August 23rd from 5:30-7p: we have the second table from the beginning! Trevor & Evan said that they would come be at the table with me so I don’t think we need anymore help with that. If I think of anything though, I’ll be sure to let you guys know! I was thinking that I would have a flier explaining the coalition & how to become a member through Orgsync & another one promoting Adopt, Don’t Shop. I am also going to include how to report an animal found on campus. I might need one of you to help me print them, we are going to want a lot. The fair was really busy last year, & there are always students looking for a chance to get more volunteer hours, so I think we will be a popular stop. I am also going to make at least three tee shirts, so that Evan, Trevor & I look like a group at the fair. If anyone else wants a shirt, or has a design in mind, let me know! Also, if anyone has any pictures of cats we have trapped or fed or anything in the past, I would love to put a few on the board I’m making for our table!
I would like to have a regular schedule of general meetings, maybe twice a month? I’m asking every new member to upload a copy of their schedule to Orgsync when they apply, so hopefully we will be able to plan times & places that work for everyone. I think having a couple of meetings a month would be a great way to get everyone on the same page & make it easy to plan volunteer opportunities, like working concessions or helping the Humane Society. We could also find times that people could go fill up the food dishes & check traps & whatever else needs done, so one person does not have to do all of the work! I would like to have some sort of attendance policy for members, I think a policy like that would discourage people from signing up & then never helping out.
My goal for the Coalition this year is to get more members that are committed to our group. I would like to see us having a dedicated team that does some volunteering, & I would like the members to have a role in feeding, trapping, or maybe just transporting the cats. My other goal is for the adults to not have to do as much work to make this happen. You all already put in a lot of hours to the school & to the education of me & the other students. I want this to be fun & therapeutic for you — rather than having it be stressful.

Restoration of the Interior of a Pullman Car in Lubbock, TX
Restoration of the interior of a Pullman car in Lubbock, TX! Contact AAE1@NTS-OnLine.Net for details. Make your contribution$ to the Lubbock Heritage Society; Pullman Project; 2301 Broadway, Lubbock, TX.
For the past few years, the Lubbock Heritage Society has been raising the funds to move the Underwood family Pullman Car from its longtime resting place at 26th and Avenue C to the Bayer Museum of Agriculture as a permanent educational exhibit that tells the story of the development of the West Texas cotton industry and the experience of midcentury passenger train travel. Finally, we were able to raise the $107,000 it took to crane-lift this 80-ton classic Pullman onto a tow truck and transport it to the Museum. It was a very successful ordeal!
Now that the car is positioned at the Museum, we are concentrating on restoring the exterior of the car and are encouraged by the response to our efforts. We think we will be able to remove the rust, patch the steel, refurbish the stairways, restore the 32 window frames, and paint the car this autumn, then we will get down to what I think is the most exciting part of the project: Restoration of the Interior of this Pullman Car.
Arch Underwood, (Louise Underwood’s father-in-law) purchased this 1925 Pullman & brought it to Lubbock in 1950 to travel and conduct business for the inland cotton compress industry. He was a masterful lobbyist & knew almost everyone who was anyone in national politics. He knew Presidents FDR and Harry Truman. He entertained Senator Lyndon Johnson, Sam Rayburn, Jim Wright, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Vinson & many other influential politicians on this car. The brass plaques he mounted in their honor are still part of the interior. We think they will serve as a meaningful touchstone to the story of West Texas agricultural politics for tours of the car.
The car also has many accessories that still have the Pullman imprint on them. Railroad professional, Bruce Carswell, insists the Underwood Pullman is the most complete with original details he has ever seen, & we are eager to restore it all to its best condition — the beds, tables, bathrooms, kitchenette, fans, lights, windows, shades & everything else the car still holds from those times. This car is a treasure trove of wonderful period appointments.
Underwood renamed the car The Fair Deal. Originally, the car was named the Gainsborough and was one of twenty luxury cars built in 1925, in the heyday of the Pullman Company. It was part of a fleet of Pullmans used on the Twentieth-Century Limited from New York to Chicago & the Orange Blossom Special and other trains taking people to Florida for the winter season. We want to discuss the pleasures of passenger train travel in the early 20th century &celebrate the ingenious engineering of this car. Really, it feels very Japanese in its close-quarter efficiencies!
The cost to fully restore the interior of the Underwood Pullman is $150,000. Please consider supporting our efforts. Arch Underwood modified two compartments to make a large gathering space for his family & took his children and grandchildren to Disneyland on this car in 1959. The whole family took a vacation on the Pullman at least once a year. When Underwood wanted to travel for business or pleasure, he just called the Santa Fe RR, hooked up his Pullman to the train, & off he went. It was definitely the good life!
We think that the Underwood Pullman Car is going to be an exciting tourist attraction for the Bayer Museum & will bring a new set of visitors to Lubbock who are interested in railroad history.
The Windmill Museum has just opened a new building with an elaborate display of model trains, & of course, Slaton has restored its historic Harvey House. These attractions, plus the Underwood Pullman Car, could make Lubbock County a new & meaningful destination for train aficionados. In the meantime, we continue to write grants & give presentations to generate funding for the project. $upport for the interior restoration of the Underwood Pullman would be most appreciated.

P.S. For those of you who helped set up the lovely refreshment buffet table, coordinated the installation of the ΦBK walk-way pavers; positioned the ΦBK floor-standing banner, gold-embossed, bookmark ribbons; ΦBK displays, hand-outs & microphone system; chuckled at my smaltzy in-sider jokes about the sets of pens & pencils entitled “Write Stuff”; “Smarties” candies; candy light bulbs, etc. (because we ΦBKs supposedly have the “right [academic / book-learning] stuff,” are supposedly “smart” & “bright,” etc.): thank you again & again.

The Phi Beta Kappa Society
an emblem of high achievement & strong potential
US’ Most Prestigious Academic honor society
with 286 college / university chapters & 50+ alumni associations
Oldest undergraduate honors organization in the US
fostering & recognizing academic excellence in liberal arts & sciences since 1776
Phi Beta Kappa sets high standards not only for the selection of students elected to membership but also for the institutions which may shelter a chapter. Applications for new chapters are accepted on a triennial basis following a lengthy process of documentation by the Phi Beta Kappa members among an institution’s faculty & administrative staff.
Recent past US presidents & US President Obama share a Phi Beta Kappa connection: three former US Presidents are ΦBK s: George H.W. Bush / Yale ’48, Bill Clinton / Georgetown, ‘68 & Jimmy Carter / honorary at Kansas State University, ’91. Two are sons of ΦBK s: US President Obama (through his father Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., ΦBK / Hawai’i at Manoa in ’62) & past US President George W. Bush (through his father). ΦBK s share the honor of membership with 17 US presidents & seven of the nine current US Supreme Court Justices (including Sonia Sotomayor, ΦBK, Princeton, ’76).
Famous or not, all ΦBK s have one thing in common: the pursuit of excellence. ΦBK s whose names you may know: Jeff Bezos, Founder of Amazon.com; Glenn Close, actor; Eileen Collins, space-shuttle commander; Francis Ford Coppola, film director; Michael Crichton, author; Rita Dove, former US Poet Laureate; John Hope Franklin, historian; Brian Greene, physicist; Peyton Manning, NFL quarterback; Stephen Sondheim, composer & lyricist; Gloria Steinem, co-founder of Ms. Magazine; & John Updike, novelist & critic.
Headhunter Nick Corcodilos, ΦBK,Rutgers, ‘77 (The Key Reporter, Fall 2009, p. 10) explains how to market Liberal Arts degree skills (e.g., English, other languages, art history, psychology: non-business disciplines) in the business world:* offer your well-honed ability to learn what you need to in order to accomplish a task & your strong writing & communication skills (to help CEOs who can’t write to save their lives). Highlight your fundamental skills & attributes (that others may lack) in terms of the respective business: e.g., your skills to define problems & tasks; master information retrieval systems (libraries, books, periodicals, Internet, personal interviews); facility in planning & executing research, organizing ideas & solutions; your attributes of an open mind to new ideas & approaches; disciplined work habits; a critical eye & ear. “Select a business you want to work in. Study it in excruciating detail. Learn enough so that you can begin mapping your skills & attributes to the business (i.e., so that you can explain how your skills & attributes can be used to solve an employer’s problems).”

”Love of learning is the guide of life.”
Phi Beta Kappa is America’s oldest & most widely recognized collegiate honor society. It was founded in 1776 at the College of William & Mary. There are now 286 chapters at the strongest & best-respected colleges & universities in the country. In selecting a college, prospective students will find the presence of a Phi Beta Kappa chapter to be a reliable indicator of institutional merit. Consult the Chapter Locator at www.PBK.org or glance through the list, below, to find institutions with a chapter.
Fewer than 10% of America’s colleges & universities have a chapter of Phi Beta Kappa. Those that do have earned the right by demonstrating that the liberal arts & sciences – the traditional core of higher learning – are at the center of their educational program, & by showing that excellence in these enduring studies is achieved, maintained, & celebrated. Phi Beta Kappa joins with its host institutions in affirming the value of liberal arts education as the best preparation for professional success, responsible citizenship, & personal fulfillment.
Only by choosing to attend a Phi Beta Kappa college or university can you aspire to membership in this selective organization. Each chapter elects about 10% of eligible liberal arts & sciences students in each class. You could join seven of the nine current justices of the United States Supreme Court, NFL quarterback Peyton Manning, actor Glenn Close, & many leaders in business, the professions, government, & academe, as a member of Phi Beta Kappa. To see the names of other distinguished members visit www.PBK.org
With about 600,000 living members, Phi Beta Kappa offers ample opportunities for networking with other ΦBK key holders in the United States & abroad. There are alumni associations in many parts of the country with activities designed to keep members engaged with their liberal arts education
Perhaps most important, Phi Beta Kappa is an advocacy group for the liberal arts & sciences, & the values inherent in those studies. By attending a Phi Beta Kappa college & being elected to membership in the Society, you can become associated with a group that fosters freedom of inquiry & expression, disciplinary rigor in learning, breadth of perspective, diversity of opinion, & the application of the skills of deliberation in the pursuit of a more just & peaceful world.
At the time of induction into The Phi Beta Kappa Society, one joins the nation’s oldest & most prestigious honor society for life. Phi Beta Kappa membership shows commitment to the liberal arts & sciences, & to freedom of inquiry & expression — & it provides a competitive edge in the marketplace. Potential employers regularly contact The Phi Beta Society’s national office to confirm the membership of job seeks.
After graduation, members may join a Phi Beta Kappa alumni association in their community. Associations bring together members of all ages, fostering friendship & lifelong learning through social, cultural & education programs & service projects. Many associations raise money for scholarships to perpetuate the legacy of The Phi Beta Kappa Society. Members also have exclusive networking opportunities & have access to a lifetime subscription to The Key Report & many other member benefits.
