Biographical history
McFarlin was a farmer in Dallas County, Texas, who owned Rice Valley Farm during the early 1900s. He attended (dates unknown) the College of A&M and later decided to donate his land to the College in his will. The Former Student Association worked with McFarlin in order to create a student loan fund for A&M students.
The McFarlin Student Loan Fund is a memorial fund created in 1933 and implemented in 1935-36. It was created from sales from the McFarlin Rice Valley Farmland run by the Association of Former Students Chairman Marion S. Church and Secretary E. E. McQuillen.
