Organization intersects floral design, philanthropy

Banquet, the Alumni Gala, the Agriculture and Life Sciences Banquet and, as of last year, the president’s suite at every home football game.  Celeste Winfield, horticulture senior and president of Texas A&M’s chapter of SAIFD, said the design of the arrangements are envisioned by William McKinley, a senior lecturer for floral design courses and the Endowed Chair of the Benz Floral Design School. Once William comes up with the concepts for the designs, members of SAIFD arrange the flowers. Winfield said the club designed arrangements for Kyle Field suites until the tradition discontinued. However, A&M President Michael Young approached William before the Fall of 2015 and proposed the reinstatement of the tradition, Winfield said.  “[Young] likes white orchids,” Winfield said. “We keep them and maintain them until it’s time to go on Friday we’re going to go and decorate his box.”  McKinley’s wife and former business partner, Nicole McKinley, Class of 1981, said Young’s preference for flowers makes designing easier. “He likes white orchids and succulents,” Nicole said. “So it’s exciting to have a president who has an interest and preference for flowers rather than just, ‘Oh, whatever.’ It’s so much easier to work with clientele when they have already some ideas of what they’d like.” In addition to the president’s suite, SAIFD also arranges designs for the chancellor’s suite, the Board of Regents’ suite and the Texas A&M Foundation’s suite. Open to all students, SAIFD connects individuals to a learning environment with instruction on floral design basics taught by SAIFD members... (Texas A&M The Battalion)
