The TWU Community offers its condolences to the family and friends of Richard W. Woodcock, EdD, who passed away Jan. 2, 2024.

Woodcock’s lifetime of giving makes him the university’s most generous cumulative donor to date. Woodcock joined the university in 2015 as a visiting senior researcher. That same year, the Woodcock Institute for the Advancement of Neurocognitive Research and Applied Practice was established at Texas Woman’s. His lifetime’s achievements were later memorialized with the naming of Woodcock Hall, located on the Denton campus.

Woodcock’s legacy will endure at Texas Woman’s University. The family welcomes donations in Woodcock’s name to the Richard W. Woodcock Endowment Fund through the Texas Woman's Division of University Advancement.
