The Texas Exes organization is one of the largest alumni associations in the world (the Texas Exes Houston Chapter alone boasts in excess of 10,000 members), with chapters in 69 Texas cities, most U.S. states and the District of Columbia, and several foreign countries.

Throughout the years, the alumni association has used a variety of slogans, including “You can’t have Texas without the Exes” and, currently, “‘Til Gabriel Blows His Horn”, which is a reference to the lyrics of “The Eyes of Texas”, the University alma mater.

The Texas Exes publish a magazine called The Alcalde and official website at texasexes.org
