TCU Seizes its Moment on Wall Street - Fort Worth Magazine

For one day, the New York Stock Exchange was purple, the day of the Horned Frog at one of the most iconic places in the world.

TCU took full advantage of its unique opportunity on Friday, seizing a moment on center stage to showcase the university to a worldwide audience on the occasion of its forthcoming 150^th birthday.

Horned Frog leaders, including Chancellor Victory Boschini and Daniel Pullin, the John V. Roach Dean of the Neeley School of Business, ascended the platform overlooking the trading floor at the New York Stock Exchange to ring the closing bell.

TCU’s party, both on the platform and those who watched from below, began chanting, “TCU! TCU! TCU!”

“This is an exciting moment for TCU. For 150 years, we have been educating students to lead in the global community,” Boschini said in a statement. “We’re ready for the next 150 years as we continue to innovate and prepare the next generation of leaders. With this bell-ringing, we recognize and celebrate the thousands of Horned Frogs working in business, strategy and finance, leading enterprise here on Wall Street, on Main Street and around the world.”

Alumni, students, members of the TCU Board of Trustees, and administrators were also present for the moment.

Among students, Brandon Fox, TCU’s Student Body president, was representing. Others, including Student Body president of the John V. Roach Honors College Marina Magnant, Luke Savage, and Jillian Johnson stood for interviews with the New York Stock Exchange’s archivist.

SuperFrog was there, too. New Yorkers have seen everything, but never a frog looking as if he had been dipped in purple roaming the streets of Lower Manhattan.

Before the bell ringing, John Tuttle, vice chairman and chief commercial officer of the New York Stock Exchange Group, welcomed TCU’s traveling party. Tuttle, donning a purple tie for his special guests, presented the TCU contingent with a history of the place where they stood and the significance of what they were about to do. 

“In today’s global economy, our graduates from the TCU Neeley School of Business have what they need — the academic background, the ethical compass and the connections to drive success,” Pullin said. “Texas is a growing hub for corporate leadership, and our students are taking what they’ve learned here in Fort Worth and utilizing those skills and values across the globe. It is an honor to celebrate the Neeley School of Business, TCU and all Horned Frogs on the national stage at the iconic New York Stock Exchange.”
