Lead On is focused on the TCU community while past campaigns have been focused on the campuses’ physical transformation, like developing new academic buildings, residence halls and redesigning the greek community.
The campaign’s overarching goal aims to increase TCU’s endowment and garner support for all the people and programs on campus.
“This concept is reflective of TCU’s culture of connection,” Ellman said. “It also exemplifies the passion that permeates TCU’s culture: a sense of spirited belonging that fuels our community to be better, achieve more and make an impact for the greater good.”
