How Dallas May Give Form to Innovation in Education
by Melanie Ferguson | Feb 10, 2016
Written in 1985, the essays in "Imagining Dallas" evoked images of the city’s formation and evolution, its good ol’ myths as well as possible futures for the ever-aspirational Dallas, Texas. Leaders from a variety of disciplines, including Wick Allison, James Pratt, Robert Sardello, and Dr. Gail Thomas, contributed to the thoughtful book but it is the great educator Dr. Louise Cowan’s chapter that informed my perception of Dallas with a new civic sense of education and responsibility.
