Mark L. Hart, Jr. Endowed Scholarship

The Mark L. Hart Jr. Endowed Scholarship was established to honor the life and legacy of a great intramural athlete and outstanding student. A member of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity and the Texas Cowboys, Mark proved himself a force to be reckoned with in football, softball, volleyball and track. Not only did he quarterback the Kappa Sigs and the legendary Legal Eagles to a number of victories, he was also named to All-Intramural teams eleven times. Mark earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration, graduated with honors from the UT School of Law and served as associate editor of the Texas Law Review. Later in life, he became a founder of the Kelly Hart and Hallman firm.
