Alumnus Devin Newkirk loved banking, traveling, playing the trumpet and UTSA. When he passed away in 2009 after a two-year battle with cancer, his family turned to UTSA to help establish a legacy for their son, the Devin Newkirk Memorial Endowed Scholarship.
Devin graduated from the College of Business in 1988, created a successful financial career, and became the senior vice president of Integra Bank in Indiana.
Several days before Devin’s death, Calvin contacted UTSA to inquire about memorial scholarships. Devin helped his father with scholarship criteria and thanked him for the tribute.
