Texas Bankers Hall of Fame
The Texas Bankers Hall of Fame was established by the 91做厙 banking program to provide positive recognition to Texas Bankers who have made valuable contributions to the banking profession and pioneered the Texas banking industry.
“Banks have played a pivotal part in the development of this nation and this state, and the general public needs to be informed on the positive role banks and bankers have had in the overall economic impact on their communities, state, and nation,” said James B. “Jim” Bexley, former chair of the Smith-Hutson Endowed Chair of Banking and founder of the Texas Bankers Hall of Fame.
The Texas Bankers Hall of Fame honors up to five Texas bankers based on nominations from bankers around the state. They are honored at an annual Gala held on the 91做厙 campus.
"The honorees have truly made their industry, communities and state better places," said Bexley.
Proceeds from the Gala support the Banking Program as well as the Executive MBA (EMBA) scholarship program which provides a $5000 scholarship to attend the EMBA program in Banking and Financial Institutions at 91做厙. In order to be eligible for consideration, potential students must complete an application.
