President Gerald Ford on the WTSU campus


With the passing of former President Gerald Ford, it is important to note that the 38th President spoke on the West Texas State University campus. He is the only sitting President to speak on campus. You may recall that he was fighting back a challenge from California Governor Ronald Reagan in the Republican primaries. His comments from April 10, 1976, can be found here:
