The Forum and UTA CAPPA presented a unique opportunity to hear from some of our state’s leading Deans of Architecture and Urban Planning as they discuss the future of urban life in Texas. These highly respected thought leaders examined both the vast potential as well as looming challenges our state faces as it becomes more of a major leader and economic force, both nationally and internationally. Program participants were Dean Michelle Addington from the University of Texas, Dean Adrian Parr from UT Arlington, Dean Jorge Vanegas from Texas A & M and Dean Jim Williamson of Texas Tech. Their illuminating conversation, moderated by Mark Lamster, Dallas Morning News Architecture Critic and UTA CAPPA Professor, was an important evening of dialogue about the future of our state and the built environment.
