Hutcheson, Ron. “Rogers Defends TA System Before Hostile Subcommittee.” Daily Texan 31 August 1977, p. 1.
Front-page article reporting UT President Rogers’s testimony before the TX House, defending the TA program.
Several TX legislators are quoted, repeating Sledd’s allegation that 398T was a sham course, instituted to allow graduate students to take 9 credit hours without really offering 9 hours of instruction. Legislators also criticize faculty who spend too much time on their research and not enough time teaching.
