JULY 6, 2025 — Editor’s note: The following message was sent via email to all faculty, staff and students from UTSA President Taylor Eighmy, Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs Heather Shipley, Executive Vice President for Business Affairs and Chief Enterprise Development Officer Veronica Salazar, Senior Vice Provost for Student Affairs and Dean of Students LT Robinson and Vice President for People Excellence and Chief Human Resources Officer Katy Madden.

Yesterday, we shared an update about the catastrophic flooding along the Guadalupe River. We are devastated by the tremendous loss and know this disaster has directly impacted many students, faculty, staff, alumni and family members throughout our Roadrunner community. UTSA stands ready to offer support and resources as we struggle with this devastating tragedy.

Many in our community have already reached out to see how they can offer support. Here are ways you can help fellow Roadrunners and others across the region impacted by recent flooding:

  • Donate to the Roadrunner Pantry. Monetary donations can be made online and are tax deductible as allowable by law. Food donations are accepted in marked bins located outside the pantry on the first floor of the Student Union 1.04.06.
  • Donate to regional support services. Consider contributions to the following organizations: 

Over the coming days, our Student Affairs and People Excellence teams will reach out to impacted students, faculty and staff from the region to check in and to provide counseling, academic resources and support. If you are in need of support or resources, please know that we are here to help you during this extremely difficult time. 

In this time of profound loss, we ask that our community continue to come together with compassion and unwavering support for one another. Our hearts are with every member of our community affected by this tragedy — we stand beside you, now and forever.
