To all Engineering Students:

I am pleased to tell you that the Board of Regents of The University of Texas System honored long-time friends of the College of Engineering at UT Austin, the late Ernest, Jr. and Virginia Cockrell and the Cockrell family, by renaming the College the “Cockrell School of Engineering.”

On July 11, 2007, this honor was given the Cockrell family for their sustained support for the College spanning more than three decades.

Please see below for the press release announcing this honor.

[a bunch of boring press release-y stuff]

Warmest regards,
Ben

I hope the administrators are not oblivious enough to change our email/internet domain abbreviation to cock.utexas.edu.

On second thought, I hope they do.
