Maximilian Buja, M.D., executive vice president for academic affairs; Brad Howell, outgoing Development Board chair; and James T. Willerson, M.D., president, UT Health Science Center at Houston. “Today we are celebrating the penultimate step in our recovery from Tropical Storm Allison with the opening of the grand staircase and new basement,” Medical School Dean Stanley Schultz, M.D., said at the June 15 ceremony. More than 300 faculty, staff, students and health science center leaders attended the ceremony and were among the first to walk down the new staircase. In the remodeled basement, visitors toured the new facilities, including classrooms and service centers, such as Quick Copy and the UT Supply Mall. Photo by Ester Fant
