About ASU
Marking its first hundred years, Arkansas State University continues to expand in exciting ways.
Wayne and Virginia Baker Estate
Wayne F. and Virginia R. Baker loved Arkansas State University almost as much as they loved each other. In many ways, Arkansas State was the center of their lives. They met there as active students in 1941, and after marrying in 1947 they continued their many fraternity and sorority commitments. As football and basketball season ticket holders for over 60 years, the Bakers made the games a big part of their social lives. They enjoyed them so much, they were the first ones to purchase the original press box tickets.
In 2009 the Bakers were the first couple selected as Distinguished Alumni, an honor that they deeply appreciated. Now, after sharing so much of their lives and their gifts with their beloved school, being honored as members of the Legacy Society is something they would have treasured. The gift from the Wayne F. and Virginia R. Baker estate will help ensure that A-State students will receive a quality education like the Bakers did, and have the opportunity to follow in their footsteps as entrepreneurs.
