(Dallas)—In recognition as an institution of significance to the history of Texas, the Baylor College of Dentistry-Texas A&M Health Science Center recently was awarded a historical marker by the Texas Historical Commission.
HSC-BCD hosted a special dedication ceremony May 4 that concluded its
Centennial Celebration, with attendees from the Texas Historical Commission,
Dallas County Historical Commission, and academic and medical leaders from
across the state. As part of the event, contents of the 100th anniversary
time capsule were displayed, with department, office and class items sealed
for 50 years and re-opened during the dental school’s sesquicentennial
year.
