May 2nd Program


It is our vision :) that futurists all around the globe have an opportunity to share in this historic milestone, Celebrating the Future!

The program, Celebrating the FUTURE!, begins at 4:30 PM in the Rockwell Pavilion at the UH M.D. Anderson Library. Among the speakers will be Dr. Christopher Dede, one of two faculty members initially hired to staff the program.. Dr. Dede is currently the Timothy E. Wirth Professor in Learning Technologies at Harvard University. Join us in Celebrating the FUTURE! physically or virtually. Open access through the Internet will be available. Plan to jump in with a word of congratulations or a raised cup of cheer! A Social Hour will follow. Just like old times :) !

The Second Alumni Reunion then begins with an Alumni Dinner for graduates and current students (7 PM). Do plan to attend! The challenge will be to have at least one member from each graduating class present!

The Reunion continues on Saturday morning with Open Space discussions on the “next 35” in the Cameron Building, the program’s new home. A Night on Houston will wind up the day.

As the program develops, information will be posted to the houstonfutures.org wiki. Leave us questions, comments or responses at http://houstonfutures.org.
