Hill Country Field Station

With support from the Winn family of Dallas, including alumnus Steve Winn (B.S., ’69) and his wife Melinda, UT is embarking on a significant new commitment in biodiversity, natural-resources and field-station research. 

The Winn Family Foundation donation supports creation of a Hill Country Field Station, and supports long-term operations for the Texas Field Station Network, as well as related biological and environmental research, educational programs and public outreach. The field station’s long-term monitoring will help land owners and policymakers better understand how changes in climate, species and development affect the land, water and other natural resources in the Hill Country and elsewhere.
