Golf Classic raises student scholarship funds  --  Let’s get involved

Golf Classic raises student scholarship funds

The 14th Annual University of Texas Health Science Center Golf Classic is in full swing with tournament participation reaching an all-time high.  This year’s tournament will take place again at Timber Creek Golf Club, Monday, Sept. 25. With one month to go, more than 90 are registered and many more have made donations to scholarships.

The Dental Branch always makes a nice showing at this event and raises record dollars for our students. Let’s keep it up!

Participating players receive commemorative gifts for their participation. This tournament is one of the most important tools in raising scholarship money for health science center students, so sign up today and play for the minds of tomorrow.
