Allan A. Marburger ’60 established a bequest of 800-plus acres of land near Paige, Texas, that will one day fund the Allan A. Marburger ’60 Endowed Scholarship in Agriculture. Marburger plans to leave the property to the Texas A&M Foundation on behalf of Texas A&M University in his will.

“I’m trying to use this scholarship to plant a seed for students who will bloom on down the road and who will give back to something to our society and will become better citizens of our state and our nation.” -Allan A. Marburger '60
