Horns up for Texas Engineer @MichaelEWebber🤘 Webber has been named a recipient of the Harold W. McGraw, Jr. Prize in Education for his work expanding access to education and helping people understand the energy systems that power our lives. cockrell.utexas.edu/news/tex…

Y'all, this is such an honor and I'm so humbled to be selected for the Harold W. McGraw Jr. Prize in Education for lifelong learning. Few entities take the time to honor educators, so this feels very special. It's nice recognition for the various educational initiatives we have launched -- TV shows, online platforms, public events, interactive curricula, books, speeches, screenings, and essays -- aimed at learners outside the classroom. It wouldn't be possible without our partners @HEB @txcomptroller @ItronInc @SloanFoundation @RockefellerFdn @WellsFargo @JGarcia3rd @alpheusmedia @MitchFound And it is hard to imagine being able to elevate energy education with global reach at any other university than @UTAustin and @CockrellSchool @TheLBJSchool
