Good morning,

As we witness the devastating impact of the floodwaters sweeping across Texas, our hearts are with our students, employees, alumni and friends who call Texas home. Beverly and I are holding you, your families, and your communities close in our thoughts and prayers during this deeply challenging time. 

We are profoundly saddened by the loss and hardship so many are facing. At the same time, we are inspired by the strength and resilience of Texans—and by the countless individuals and organizations stepping up to help their neighbors in need. Their compassion and courage are a powerful reminder of the spirit that defines your great state.

Please know that your Lindenwood University community stands with you. We send our deepest support and care as you navigate the days ahead. 

Sincerely,

Dr. John R. Porter

President, Lindenwood University
