The University of the Incarnate Word welcomed former Mexican President Vicente Fox as part of a new speaker series.
– Former Mexican President Vicente Fox Quesada visited the University of the Incarnate Word campus on Wednesday afternoon accompanied by the former first lady of Mexico, Marta Sahagún de Fox, and helped kick off the university’s new speaker series -- “Leaders of the Americas.”
“Performance is a key factor of leadership,” Fox said. “It comes from preparing students with purpose, with enlightenment. That’s a great privilege, but it’s a big responsibility. Not everybody can be here in university. In Mexico, 70 percent of the young population don’t have a chance, don’t have an opportunity, to be at a university.”
UIW President Dr. Thomas M. Evans and Fox signed a memorandum Wednesday afternoon to create a stronger pathway for opportunity and education. Fox said leadership and career opportunities go hand in hand with contribution to the economy in Mexico. “We need regulation. We need laws to administrate that flow . When the economy grows faster, we need to open the valve and get more people from abroad to help us run the economy. Or we close the valve when we are not running at a speed of 3% or more.”
