Lecture: Change the Way the Eyes See: The Eyes of Texas as a Metaphor for History, Memory, and Meaning

Change the Way the Eyes See: The Eyes of Texas as a Metaphor for History, Memory, and Meaning
Tuesday, March 23, 2021 - 8:00-9:00pm

Richard J. Reddick, Ed.D., Department of Higher Education Leadership & Policy

The Eyes of Texas, the university’s 117 year old alma mater, is nestled at the center of a moment of reflection over our institution’s history, including who has been welcomed and included, and who has not. The work of The Eyes of Texas History Committee can serve as a catalyst to thoughtfully interrogate UT’s, as well as the city, state, and nation’s, formative years, reflect on our present, and chart a future that propels all forward, together. In this lecture, Dr. Reddick will share lessons and questions from the committee’s work and aim to kindle the spirit of conversation, community, and commitment to change befitting a community that espouses “what starts here changes the world."
