Arkansas Tech University President Dr. Russell Jones presented Cory Cox with a symbol of the institution’s appreciation for his service on the ATU Board of Trustees.
The presentation took place on Thursday, Oct. 22, while Cox was on the ATU campus in Russellville as part of the Arkansas Supreme Court Appeals on Wheels program visit to Arkansas Tech.
A resident of Perryville, Cox served on the ATU Board of Trustees from June 2024-August 2026. He resigned from the board following his appointment by Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders as a special justice to the Arkansas Supreme Court.
Cox graduated from Arkansas Tech with a Bachelor of Arts degree in history and political science in 1996. He was active in ATU Student Government Association and ATU Student Activities Board during his time as an undergraduate student.
