Welcome to Texas Tech

Welcome to Texas Tech University and the Red Raider Family! You are just beginning a journey that will further enrich your lives, lead to long-lasting friendships and prepare you for your futures.

I’m always excited when students return to campus. You are the reason we are here. I confidently speak for the administration, faculty and staff when I say we are proud you are students at Texas Tech University. You had many options available when deciding to pursue higher education and we are grateful you chose Texas Tech.

The Fraternity & Sorority Community at Texas Tech University is strong and boasts a tradition of developing strong leaders in business, industry, education and many other fields. The bonds you will form, along with the leadership and community-minded opportunities afforded you through this experience, will contribute greatly to your futures.

Our students make this place great. Members of our fraternal organizations are visible throughout campus in many leadership roles and in the recruitment of future students. You set the example for the university that attracts new students. We are here to help make that happen, so reach out to us, lean on us, and be successful.

Sincerely,

Lawrence Schovanec Texas Tech University President
