Leadership

Thanks to all who joined us for the opening of Celebrating 100 Years of John S. Chase, including members of the Chase family and colleagues from across the School of Architecture and UT Austin campus.

Our Spring 2025 public programming lineup is here! This semester’s exhibitions and lectures represent a broad cross-section of disciplines of the built environment — including architects, urban planners, landscape architects, interior designers and urban designers.
 
 

Today marks 100 years since the birth of John S. Chase (1925-2012)—one of the first Black graduate students to enroll at @utaustintx, the first African American to graduate from the School of Architecture, and the first Black licensed architect in Texas.
