Gray Jr., of Kansas City, Kansas, was a Hornet football player while he earned a bachelor of science in education degree in psychology in 1975 from what was then called Kansas State Teachers College.

He previously served on the ESU Alumni Board.
"KSTC assisted me with my educational goals in my youth," said Gray. "Now it's time to help other youth with theirs!"
Gray is one of eight new trustees on the ESU Foundation board. Trustees serve as role models for potential donors by generously contributing of their own time and resources. They are actively involved in university events and programs and serve to raise philanthropic resources to advance the mission of Emporia State University.
