What Matters to District 32
Fred W. Heldenfels IV - Corpus Christi
"Texas has made great strides in "Closing the Gaps", its strategic plan for higher education since 2000.

The future success of the Texas economy will depend on our ability to help more students complete workforce certificate, associate and bachelor degree programs.

The 82nd Texas Legislature will take up this issue in 2013." Tell us what you think.
