in  appreciation for the presentation Johnstone made a monetary contribution to TAMUSA.

Provost P6050004 Brent Snow acknowledges receipt of the check. This will fund the registration fee for a new Toastmasters Club at Texas A & M University – San Antonio. Business Communications Instructor Richard Jenkins is faculty sponsor for this group. We have already had an enthusiastic response from students. At least one student is already a Toastmaster member at another club in town. 

Toastmasters International  is a non profit organization devoted to improving speaking and presentation skills. There are numerous clubs in San Antonio. 

Thanks to Mike and David for helping us kick off another student resource at Texas A & M University – San Antonio!

    Excellent, I am looking forward to such a club. I have attended several Toastmaster meetings and have found them to be a great place to practice your public speaking abilities.
