There's a star in Maverick country,
radiating across our campus and throughout our community.
Brilliance is everywhere —
in our labs,
in our classrooms,
creating new knowledge,
charting new paths.

The luminance that spreads
with discovery and teaching
is a beacon for modern-day explorers,
adding luster to Texas and the world

Fueling a burning desire to know and learn,
reflecting on a proud and storied past
with glowing traditions — old and new —
and sparkling like gemstones
no longer fixed in the sky
but aligned for greatness.

Lone stars by the tens of thousands
shining brightly on a broad and welcome horizon,
illuminating a future beyond your wildest dreams,
but within our grasp.

Nurturing our intellect and warming our hearts
throughout this season,
throughout the year,
throughout the Maverick universe.

Happy Holidays!
