I Am Navarro College

I haven’t received a paycheck from Navarro College since 1993—and when I did, it wasn’t much. I was simply thrilled to have a dorm room, a meal card and a Hall of Fame coach to work for while I chased my dream of college basketball.

More than three decades later, I returned to Corsicana for the Navarro College Hall of Fame and realized how profoundly that experience shaped my life. Former players became coaches. Assistant coaches became Division I head coaches. Relationships crossed generations. And an institution I left decades ago still feels like part of who I am.

That is the difference between a transactional organization and a transformational one.

The transaction ended decades ago. The transformation never did.

I am Navarro College.
