| The
Rowlett Lecture Series was created in 1980 to bring speakers of
national and international significance to the schools of architecture
at Texas A&M University and the University of Texas. The original
endowment was established with the Texas Architectural Foundation
(TAF) through support from CRS, Inc., in Houston and Mrs. Virginia
Rowlett. After reviewing proposals by each school for the inaugural
lecture, Texas A&M was chosen and subsequently given control
over the series by TAF because of its enthusiasm and the quality
of the program prepared for the initial lecture series.
