  • Cary Maguire helped shape SMU Cox

    SMU Board Trustee Emeritus Cary Maguire, a longtime member of the Cox Executive Board and Maguire Energy Institute Board, passed away August 10, 2021. Dean of the Cox School of Business Matthew B. Myers said, “In addition to his years of support for SMU, Mr. Maguire’s generosity helped lead the Cox School to its current prominence as a globally competitive business school. In 1974, he provided funding to establish the Maguire Energy Institute at the Cox School. In 1985, he helped support the creation of the School’s Maguire Building, and he served for many years as the chair of the Cox Executive Board. As an iconic oil industry entrepreneur, the Maguire Energy Institute honored him with its prestigious Pioneer Award in 2019. Cary Maguire helped guide the trajectory of the Cox School and the career success of countless SMU Cox graduates. We are grateful for his contributions and saddened by his passing.”
