Former TWU regent and her husband present school with $2 million gift

DENTON -- Sue Bancroft, a former chairwoman of the Texas Woman's University Board of Regents, and her husband, Christopher Bancroft, are investing $2 million in the university.

The Bancrofts' donation is motivated by the desire to build programs focused on cultivating women’s leadership, the university announced in a TWU Board of Regents meeting Friday in Dallas.

Carine Feyten, chancellor and president of TWU, said Bancroft has worked tirelessly to find ways to leverage TWU’s heritage as the nation’s largest university primarily for women in order to advance women’s leadership in Texas and beyond.

“Sue has been a longtime friend and supporter of Texas Woman’s University and is known across North Texas for her community leadership in education and the arts,” Feyten said in a press release.
