Leadership Award
by Warner Todd Huston31 Mar 2015Austin, TX
As the University of Texas debuted its new Latino
Leadership Award, it was announced that the first winner would be
newly-elected Texas Land Commissioner George P. Bush.
In conjunction with its Latino Research Initiative, UofT awarded Bush the honor
early this week.
“In our diverse Latino Texas, there are very few individuals
who have the résumé and record of excellence as Commissioner Bush,” said Nicole Guidotti-Hernández,
chair of the Department of Mexican American and Latina/o Studies. “His life-long
commitment to service as a teacher, veteran, UT alumnus and land commissioner
makes him an exemplar of why transformative leadership is valued and
necessary.”
George P. Bush, the oldest son of former Florida Governor Jeb Bush and
a U.S. Navy Reserve Officer, is serving his first term as the Commissioner of
the Texas General Land Office. It is his first elective office. In
fact, Bush won his position in a landslide election
making him the first Bush to win office on his first try.
“I am honored and humbled to be the first recipient of the
University of Texas Latino Leadership Award,” Bush said in the
university’s press release. “As Texas Land Commissioner and a graduate of the
University of Texas, I am proud CMAS is facilitating historical understanding
and creating a legacy of cultural respect that should make all Longhorn
students proud.”
