Signature Events
The Harry W. Bass Jr. School of Arts, Humanities, and Technology hosts a variety of distinguished, signature events designed to engage and connect internal and external audiences.
Anlin Ku Lecture Series
Started in 2013, the Anlin Ku Visiting Artist and Scholars Program was made possible with a generous gift from Jeff Robinson and Stefanie Schneidler. The program is named for Anlin Ku, a Taiwanese woman who played a major role in Schneidler’s upbringing.
Comer Collection Annual Exhibition and Lecture
Each year, the collection hosts a visiting artist – typically a renowned photographer – who gives a public lecture, leads classes in the Harry W. Bass Jr. School of Arts, Humanities, and Technology, and conducts portfolio reviews with students. In addition, the public is invited to see a collection of the artist’s work, as well as photos from the Comer Collection.
Einspruch Lecture Series
Each year, the Ackerman Center for Holocaust Studies invites eminent scholars and prominent figures in the field of Holocaust Studies to present the Burton C. Einspruch Holocaust Lecture Series. This forum encourages audiences to gain insight into some of the ground-breaking research in the field, promoting a much-needed exchange of ideas revolving around the Shoah.
Wolfgang Rindler Memorial Fund
Wolfgang Rindler was professor emeritus of physics, one of the founding faculty members of UT Dallas, and a supporter of the school. Born in Vienna, Austria, his career spanned more than 60 years. After Rindler’s passing February 2019, the Rindler family and friends created the Rindler Memorial Fund. This fund supports activities that integrate science, particularly physics, with the arts and/or humanities.
