We're pleased to introduce our new Executive Director at TXHES, TMDSAS, and JAMP, Matthew Meeks! Listeners will recognize Mr. Meeks as the former director of TMDSAS; he brings his expertise and leadership to help guide us into the next chapter of the organization.
We also discuss the impacts of COVID-19 on the TMDSAS Application cycle, and learn about how the member institutions are working together to help applicants.
