History of the Scholarship
Beginning in 2026, Clinton B. Morris has committed a gift of four thousand dollars ($4,000) annually for the next five years to recognize an outstanding senior in the Texas State University Construction Science & Management Program. This scholarship honors a graduating senior who demonstrates exceptional potential for success in the construction profession.
In previous years, the College of Science and Engineering presented this award as a prestigious recognition without a monetary component. Through Mr. Morris’ generosity, the honor will now also include a cash award, helping ensure a strong start for the recipient as they begin their career in the construction industry.
