Brown, Commissioner of Higher Education for the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, who will address, "The Role of Digital and Distance Learning in Closing the Gaps in Texas"; Gary A. Woods, Chief, Department of Defense (DoD) Continuing Education Programs, presenting "Military Education: Bigger 'N Texas," and during the closing session, Donald M.
