Resurrecting for a Better Tomorrow
In 2025, UTA alumni can look forward to exciting gatherings, including outings to SiNaCa Studios and UTA Night with the Texas Rangers. The Alumni Relations team is also planning a Rodeo outing, offering more opportunities to reconnect.
Beyond these events, there are no major updates on parking or new alumni engagement initiatives on campus. However, campus improvements continue—the Hereford Center, which received a North-end facelift a few years ago, is now set for a full renovation. And for those seeking a nostalgic experience, the original Pink Floyd laser light shows at the UTA Planetarium are still shining bright.
