"Bobcats - it is my pleasure to assume the role of Alumni Association President-Elect for the 2021-2022 term. Representing you gives me great pride and I look forward to what we can achieve together." |
Emily Roan
(B.S. '14)
"Since graduating Texas State University in 2014 with a B.S. in aquatic biology I was able to travel and use my education to contribute to aquaculture, fisheries and aquatic conservation in not only Texas but the shores of Alaska, the valleys of Idaho, and the New York harbor. Due to the focus and quality of education in the Aquatic Biology Program I have had a leg up in this industry since day one. I am now a proud scientist at an AZA aquarium."
