Our Purpose

Our Mission


The purpose of The Ocean of Soul Alumni Chapter is to uplift and preserve the strong traditions and legacy of the historic Texas Southern University Ocean of Soul Marching Band. We will do this through financial and physical support, social and political networking among alumni, undergraduate and “friends of the Ocean” and assisting potential and current students involved in the university band program.
Our mission, is to be an independent voice that serves as champions for the Ocean of Soul Marching Band, and to utilize alumni member skills, resources and love for the Ocean of  Soul to make a difference for the Band and Texas Southern University.​

Hello Ocean Alumni,
     As the newly elected President of the Ocean of Soul Alumni Chapter, I want to extend greetings to all former and current Ocean members.  Our Chapter meets monthly, and I encourage each of you to attend.  We will discuss Ocean Alumni Activities for the upcoming year, including: Ocean 50th Anniversary, Fundraising, Band needs, Scholarship, Committee assignments and more.
     Your voice is important, whether you were Motion, Flag, Twirler, or played an instrument.  We want you involved in everything that we do to support the Ocean of Soul.  Freely give time to Mentor a student.  Give generously to the Ronald B. Thornton Scholarship.   Volunteer at Ocean events to enhance Recruiting.  Network and Fellowship with Ocean family. Give time and money to the TSU Community.  I challenge everyone to put aside your personal differences, allegiances and self-interests.   Work with us to make a difference in the lives of our TSU Ocean of Soul Band students. 
 
Regards,,
 
Donald Greer
