VA, A&M - CENTRAL TEXAS, AND CENTRAL TEXAS COLLEGE TO PROMOTE BENEFITS OF POST-9/11 GI BILL WITH EDUCATION EXPO


October 20, 2009, Killeen, TEXAS --- The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Central Texas College, and Texas A&M University- Central Texas will host an Education Expo to showcase the new Post-9/11 GI Bill on the campus of Central Texas College in Killeen, Texas on Tuesday, Oct. 27 from 10 a.m. to 12 noon in the Mayborn Planetarium & Space Theater, Building 152. Veterans, Central Texas College faculty, A&M – Central Texas faculty, and community officials on Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits will be in attendance.

“Since September 11, 2001, our men and women in uniform have shown a courageous commitment and sacrifice to their country,” Waco VA Regional Office Director Carl Lowe said. “VA remains as committed as ever to honoring that sacrifice and helping our country usher in a new generation of GI Bill recipients.”
Lowe, along with Central Texas College Chancellor Dr. James Anderson, will outline the benefits of the historic legislation and encourage student veterans to take advantage of the educational opportunities the bill affords during the expo. The on-campus ceremony, part of VA’s on-going effort to educate student veterans and key stakeholders about Post- 9/11 GI Bill benefits, will include remarks by Lowe, Anderson as well as Dr. Garry Ross, interim president, A&M – Central Texas, and Bill Kinnison, education services officer at Fort Hood.

Central Texas College and A&M – Central Texas provides quality education to a large veteran population serving over 1,500 veterans currently benefiting from the GI Bill.

Directly following a brief ceremony at 10 a.m., VA officials and subject matter experts will be available for individual questions and concerns at various booths and tables.

The Post-9/11 GI Bill authorizes the most extensive educational assistance opportunity since the passage of the original GI Bill in 1944. The maximum benefit allows every eligible veteran, service member, Reservist, and National Guard member an opportunity to receive an in-state, undergraduate education at a public institution at no cost.
VA is committed to ensuring a transparent, efficient and streamlined process for Post-9/11 GI Bill claims. More than 900 personnel are assigned to process claims, and VA is utilizing rehired annuitants to provide additional processing support. In addition, over 100 staff at the Education Call Center (1- 888-GIBILL) assist veterans, answering questions and concerns.
For more information about the Post-9/11 GI Bill please visit http://www.gibill.va.gov/.

FAIRWAY MIDDLE SCHOOL TO BECOME A&M–CENTRAL TEXAS NORTH CAMPUS

KILLEEN, Texas – A two-year lease agreement on the former Fairway Middle School in Killeen has been reached between Killeen Independent School District and The Texas A&M University System.

TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY SYSTEM
OFFICE OF COMMUNICATIONS
NEWS RELEASE

A&M SYSTEM EXPANDS TO 11 INDEPENDENT UNIVERSITIES WITH ADDITION OF CAMPUSES IN KILLEEN AND SAN ANTONIO

COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Gov. Rick Perry today welcomed two new independent universities to The Texas A&M University System with a ceremony at the Capitol to sign a bill making the expansion possible. Texas A&M University-Central Texas and Texas A&M University-San Antonio each have passed enrollment benchmarks set by the Texas Legislature to qualify for stand-alone status. The former system centers had been part of Tarleton State University and Texas A&M University-Kingsville, respectively.

The addition of A&M-Central Texas and A&M-San Antonio increases the number of independent universities in the A&M System to 11. The system, which has offices in 250 of the state’s 254 counties, also includes seven state agencies and a comprehensive health science center. It operates a $3.04 billion budget and educates more than 109,000 students.

“We are very proud of all the work that has gone into making independent A&M System universities in Killeen and San Antonio a reality. These universities will not only bring jobs to Killeen and San Antonio, but also provide local residents easy access to a quality, affordable university education,” said Morris Foster, chairman of the Board of Regents.

“Texas is a state on the upswing. As our population continues to grow and we work to remain competitive in the global marketplace, we need to make sure we have the higher education opportunities in place to groom the workforce of the next 50 years,” said Gov. Perry. “This bill acknowledges the rapid growth of our student population and accelerates these schools’ ability to issue tuition revenue bonds and build the facilities they need.”

In May, the Texas Legislature passed a bill to lower the full-time enrollment threshold from 1,500 to 1,000 and free up $40 million in tuition revenue bonds to build the A&M-San Antonio campus. It will be located on 700 acres south of Loop 410 between Pleasanton Road and South Zarzamora Street.

In March, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board certified Tarleton State University-Central Texas’ spring 2009 enrollment at 1,204 full-time students, surpassing the 1,000 mark set by the legislature. Texas A&M System Chancellor Michael D. McKinney and Army Secretary Pete Geren signed an agreement in May to transfer 662 acres from Fort Hood to the A&M System to be used for the A&M-Central Texas campus.

“The expansion of the A&M System is already having a profound impact on the economy, academic excellence and access to higher education for all Texans,” said McKinney.

Texas A&M University - Central Texas, offers evening, weekend and online classes toward bachelor’s and master’s degrees and is located just off of Highway 190 at 1901 S. Clear Creek Road in Killeen. For more information, call 254-519-5421 or log on to www.TAMUCT.org.
