General Counsel

Mission and Purpose

Welcome to the Texas Woman’s University Office of General Counsel (OGC). The purpose of this website is to familiarize the TWU community with our office and its services. In addition, we answer frequently asked questions and provide links to TWU resources and legal research. From time to time, we also post recent legal developments of particular importance to the University and our community. We hope this website provides a valuable first resource on legal matters related to TWU.

The OGC is responsible for addressing legal issues arising out of the activities of Texas Woman’s University.

The mission of the Office of General Counsel is to respectfully educate our TWU clients as to the laws applicable to Texas Woman’s University operations, to effectively solve legal problems, to facilitate fiscally responsible transactions, and to provide the highest quality of legal advice and representation to help TWU fulfill its mission and meet its goals.

*The Office of the General Counsel does not provide legal advice or representation to individual members of the University community on matters against the University or with other personal matters.  It does not provide legal advice to students.
