Correction, Oct. 20, 2022 12:05 pm: An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated that about 11% of all money Abbott raised while running for governor — or 1 out of every $11 — has come from people Abbott appointed to serve on university system boards or the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. Ten percent of all money raised — or 1 out of every $10 — came from a regent or coordinating board member.
Two-thirds of board members overseeing Texas public universities are Abbott donors. They’re not shy about wielding influence.
