PBS series examines Texas challenges, solutions

Abstract:
A new PBS documentary series on public higher education, "State of Tomorrow," will be previewed in the next few weeks on PBS stations in San Antonio, Austin, College Station, El Paso and Waco, according to Randa Safady, series executive producer and UT System vice chancellor for external relations.

"State of Tomorrow" is a 13-episode series that examines how public higher education innovators are pursuing solutions to Texas' biggest challenges in public health, homeland security, energy policy, economic development, environmental quality and education. The series highlights new research in bio-safety, nanotechnology, and proton therapy through thought-provoking interviews and visuals.
