A new name has been announced for the College of Osteopathic Medicine at Sam Houston State University in Conroe. The college has been named in honor of Russell and Glenda Gordy. The naming recognition is a result of the Gordys' support for the university's vision of creating a medical school to serve Texas.

University leaders, including Chancellor Brian McCall and President Alisa White, played a significant role in making this vision a reality. Further details about the naming and the college's mission can be found in the original article from Community Impact Newspaper.
