Call for Communications Co-Chair

The Texas Association for College Admission Counseling is currently accepting applications for the position of Communications Co-Chair. The Communications Co-Chair works closely with the TACAC Executive Board to engage and manage communications with membership.

Channeling his icon and inspiration Ric Flair, outgoing TACAC President Mickey Saloma lifted his title belt above his head to the roaring approval of over 700 colleagues. The belt, a gift for a year of hard work, camaraderie, and more hard work, was presented to Saloma during the passing of the gavel.

“I’m not going to cry because it’s over,” Saloma said, passing the gavel to new President Micah Lyles. “I’m going to smile because it happened.”

Executive Board

So many of us in this profession can remember our first days as a college admission counselor, or as a high school counselor. Were you nervous to speak in front of others? Did you look at a high school calendar, and think - how do I plan events for parents and students? Did you go to your first college fair and look around, thinking, "how do so many of these college reps know each other?" 

Do you have a topic you think should be featured in the blog? Or maybe you’re looking for a way to get involved in TACAC. Maybe you have an interest in social media.

 The TACAC Communications Committee is actively looking for new members to write for the blog. Topics range from upcoming events to major trends within higher education. We want to write about topics that are important to all members within TACAC. No previous blog experience is necessary to join.  

On behalf of TACAC, I would like to officially welcome all of our new and returning members! While many have been a part of TACAC for a while now, we still want to share some very important information every member should know. With that said, it is only right to start with TACAC’s Vision Statement –

 TACAC develops professionals committed to providing the highest quality counseling to ensure students' access to and persistence through post-secondary education.
