ABOUT THE HERMILA ANZALDUA LECTURE SERIES
The lecture series honors Hermila Anzaldua, professor emeritus and founder of the social work program at UTPA, who came to the university in 1969 and became the director of the community services program which would later merge into the UTPA social work program offering an undergraduate degree in professional social work. Under her leadership, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board designated the academic program as the Bachelor of Social Work degree and in 1976 the Council on Social Work Education, the profession’s accrediting body, granted initial accreditation status.
