What a special visit! 💙💚
Western Texas College President Dr. Laurie Sharp and WTC Foundation Director Lora Poe recently had the privilege of visiting Ms. Wanda Clinton as she prepares to celebrate an incredible milestone: her 100th birthday this October!
Ms. Clinton holds a special place in the history of Western Texas College. She is the wife of the late Dr. Robert L. Clinton, WTC’s founding and first president, and her connection to the College reaches all the way back to its earliest days.
From the moment we met Ms. Clinton, we were captivated by her warmth, personality, and wonderful spirit. She has a presence about her that makes you feel as though you are in the company of someone truly special, a little celebrity-like sparkle combined with a genuine sweetness that was simply a breath of fresh air. We laughed, visited, shared stories, and could have stayed much longer!
We also thoroughly enjoyed getting to know her son, Dave "Reagan" Clinton, and daughter-in-law, Pat Clinton, whose warmth and hospitality made the visit even more meaningful.
As Western Texas College looks toward the future, moments like this remind us how fortunate we are to remain connected to the people and families who helped shape our beginning. Nearly 100 years of life, a remarkable connection to WTC history, and an afternoon we won't soon forget.
Happy early 100th birthday, Ms. Clinton! It was truly an honor to spend time with you. 💙💚
People first. Purpose always. Forward together.

Talk about a memorable graduation! When Mary Lou Costabile walked the stage at WTC back in 1980, her graduation gown was hiding her pregnant belly! 🎓👶
After WTC, Mary Lou put her education on pause to focus on family life and raising her children. But her passion for learning never faded! Years later, she returned to earn her bachelor’s degree at Abilene Christian University and went on to dedicate an incredible 31 years to education with Colorado City ISD. As an elementary Social Studies and PE teacher, plus a dedicated volleyball, basketball, and cheer coach, she shaped the lives of countless young students and athletes.
Talent and dedication clearly run in the family, too. Mary Lou is the proud grandmother of Alexxus Antonick, the talented local painter behind many wonderful murals across Snyder, Colorado City, and beyond! 🖌️✨
📸 A special request for our WTC family: Mary Lou wishes she had photos from that 1980 graduation ceremony in the courtyard. Does anyone out there happen to have photos from the Class of 1980 graduation? If you do, please share them in the comments or send us a message!
Thank you, Mary Lou, for showing us that it's never too late to pursue your dreams and for being such an inspiring part of WTC history! 💚

Once a Western Texas College Westerner, always a Westerner! 💚
We had a wonderful visit with alumnus Adam Owen (Class of '05)! Adam earned his Associate Degree in Golf Course and Sports Field Turf Management and went on to found Owen Diesel, LLC.
He stopped by to see us while waiting for his daughter, Brently, during New Student Orientation as she prepares to start her freshman year at WTC! You could truly see how proud Adam is to pass the torch to the next generation of Westerners.
Welcome to the WTC family, Brently! We are so excited to see all that you accomplish!

To support their hard work and dedication, both Joel and Antony were awarded the Davidson Charitable Foundation Scholarship! ✨
Juggling full-time work, life, and rigorous hands-on training takes serious grit, but their shared goal to expand their skill sets, build a brighter future, and power up their careers keeps them moving forward together.
