Sam Houston State University held a ceremonial ribbon-cutting Thursday dedicating the newly-named Frank Parker Plaza in honor of the former vice president for student affairs, who provided the university leadership and growth for over four decades. While the plaza is located at the heart of campus, the event was moved inside historic Peabody Memorial Library due to inclement weather.
He held a number of important official positions at SHSU. At his retirement in 2022, he was named vice president emeritus.
