SUMMARY:2026 Fall Virtual Alumni Gathering
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\n\n\nThe Fall Terry Alumni Gathering is a virtual event designed for Terry Scholar Alumni to connect with and celebrate their fellow Scholars. This year’s Terry Alumni Speaker is Reyes Ramirez (UH 2008). \n\n\nJoin us as we celebrate Alumni accomplishments so far in 2026! \nWhile the Terry Banquets and Picnics are great opportunities to give back by connecting with and celebrating our students\, the Virtual Alumni Gathering is a way to connect with and celebrate fellow Terry Alumni. This gathering is hosted virtually to increase the chances of making new Terry connections inside and outside Texas. \nThis event will last one hour and is an opportunity for Alumni to receive an update from the Terry Board of Directors\, to connect with familiar faces\, and to meet new friends in our Terry Alumni Community. \nOur Virtual Gatherings are casual\, and appearances by family members and pets are allowed and encouraged! \nFeatured Speaker\nReyes Ramirez (he/him) is a 2008 UH Terry Scholar. He graduated from University of Houston with a B.A. in Political Science and Government & Creative Writing\, and he earned an M.F.A. in Creative Writing from Texas State University. \nReyes is the 2025 – 2027 Houston Poet Laureate\, as well as a writer\, educator\, curator\, and translator of Mexican and Salvadoran descent.  \nHe authored the short story collection The Book of Wanderers (2022)\, the poetry collection El Rey of Gold Teeth (2023)\, and Cerveza Songs: Houston\, TX (2024)\, a collection of craft beer poetry reviews and photography. His latest curatorial project\, The Houston Artist Speaks Through Grids\, explores the use of grids in Houston art\, literature\, history\, and politics.  \nReyes has been honored as the: 2025 Anne Frydman Translation Prize Winner from The Hopkins Review; 2024 Speculative Play and Just Futurities Fellow; 2023 Intercultural Leadership Institute Fellow; 2023 Dobie Paisano Fellow; 2022 Crosstown Arts Writer in Residence; 2021 Interchange Artist Grant Fellow; and received awards from the BIPOC Arts Network and Fund\, Houston Arts Alliance\, Poets & Writers\, and The Warhol Foundation’s Idea Fund.  \nHe loves puzzles\, cold brew coffee with sugar free vanilla and oat milk\, and his wife’s laugh.

SUMMARY:2026 TSAA BCS Polite Coffee & Conversations
DESCRIPTION:Join the Terry Scholar Alumni Association Bryan/College Station Chapter and TAMU Terry Students for a networking social at a Terry-owned business! Whether you are a Terry Alumni looking to share advice and experiences\, or a current student looking to meet previous scholars\, this event is for you! \nWe have reserved The Grove – a special section of Polite – for this event. Delicious beverages and pastries will be provided. This social is meant for networking and experience sharing. Think of it as a more relaxed and low-key version of banquet. As such\, while we look forward to hanging out with families at future events\, we request only alumni and current students attend. \nWe hope to see you there!
