Thank You, President Schrum
Texas Wesleyan University School of Law wishes to express its sincere
appreciation to President Jake B. Schrum for his vision of making the School
of Law a reality.
It was through his efforts in 1992 that the DFW School of Law became affiliated
with Texas Wesleyan University. Under Schrum’s leadership, the law school
has flourished, earning provisional accreditation from the American Bar
Association in 1994 and full accreditation in August 1999.
The School of Law also wishes to recognize the accomplishments Schrum
has achieved for the broader school community as well. During his nineyear
tenure as president, the University's endowment has more than doubled
from $22 million to $44.7 million, and the enrollment has increased from
1,429 to 3,000 students. The Annual Fund also has doubled from $450,000
to just over $900,000. A Weekend University, an MBA program, a distance
learning program in graduate education, as well as a bilingual education
program were established. Texas Wesleyan's budget has grown from $11
million to $32 million in just nine years.
The School of Law wishes President Schrum much success, both professionally and personally, as he assumes his
new role as president of Southwestern University, his alma mater, in Georgetown, Texas.
