Molly Millsap, who earned a bachelor’s degree from the School of Interdisciplinary Studies, was the first participant in the Temoc Reveal, a new UTD commencement tradition that lets the campus community learn the identity of the mascot when he or she graduates.
Millsap was Temoc for two years. Per the unwritten rules of being a mascot, her identity remained a secret while serving as Temoc. She was revealed during a ceremony when she received her diploma holder from a current Temoc.
A mascot for 11 years, including for schools in her hometown of Sulphur Springs, Texas, Millsap also has worked at Disney World. She is an instructor with the National Cheerleaders Association.
