April
9,2002 – Spread over 500 square miles of land, San Antonio is a
place where you need a car to get around in the city. But that was not
always the case. Char Miller, professor and chair of Trinity’s history
department, will speak on how San Antonio changed from being a frontier
village to a major metropolitan area in a Food For Thought luncheon.
Professor Miller’s presentation, titled “The Best Laid Plans: How San
Antonio Grew, and Why,” will take place at noon on Wednesday, May 1,
in the Coates Center Fiesta Room. Tickets for the luncheon
are $14 and reservations should be made three days prior to the event
by calling the alumni relations office at (210) 999-8404.
