Heya TAURUS fam! Welcome back to the blog. Today we kicked off the fourth year of the TAURUS program here in Austin. It's hard to believe we've been running this long, with 17 TAURUS alumni and 8 2019 TAURUS Scholars! We are so thrilled to have them here. Because the weather was a bit more cooperative this year than usual, we were able to take our group "arrival" photo in front of the UT tower without completely melting. Check it out!
