TCU Retiree Award Recipients

Don Mills receiving an Award

TCU Treasure Awardee 2026

Don Mills spent more than 50 years at TCU, serving as Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs, senior university administrator, professor, and later Distinguished Professor of Higher Education Leadership in the College of Education. Many retirees see Don as a living link to several eras of TCU leadership, having worked closely with Chancellors Tucker, Ferrari, and Boschini during periods of major institutional growth.

Since retirement, he has remained highly visible in retiree activities and is regarded as one of TCURA’s most respected members.

Leo Munson receiving an award

Linda Moore Service Award 2026

Leo Munson is widely regarded as one of TCU’s key keepers of institutional memory. During his career, he worked in admissions, financial aid, enrollment management, academic affairs, facilities planning, and university history, building relationships across nearly every part of campus.

After retiring, Leo quickly became active in TCURA, regularly attending programs and events. He was featured in a “Retiree Spotlight,” served on the TCURA Executive Board, and has advocated for retiree benefits through the University Compensation Advisory Committee.

Leo’s most enduring contribution has been preserving TCU’s history. Working with Dr. Dan Williams and others, he helped establish and expand the TCU Oral History Project, recording the stories of faculty, staff, administrators, and alumni. He also served as an editor of A Remarkable Story to Tell: TCU 1973–2023, the university’s sesquicentennial history.

We connect with the Wellness Gold Program with FREE access to the University Fitness Center.

TCU Retirees who meet the Rule of 75 may use the University Recreation Center at no cost. It’s easy to establish Retiree membership, just visit the Recreation Center office and present your TCU Retiree ID card. Other family members can access the Recreation Center at standard family rates.

Now We're Cooking!

The TCU Retirees Association cookbook is a compilation of a variety of delicious recipes from the association’s members. Some recipes have been passed from one family generation to the next.
