A $100,000 gift from James and Rebecca Wilkes of Fort Worth has endowed a petroleum engineering scholarship for students who are Texas residents with financial need and a minimum GPA of 3.0.
“Both Becky and I were recipients of scholarships while we were students at A&M. These funds along with summer internships allowed us to finance our education. We are very grateful for that support and want to do the same for future generations of Aggie petroleum engineers,” said Wilkes, president of Texland Petroleum.
