Here is a photo of me (seated) watching the 2010 Pan American Championship-winning UT Dallas college chess team play an exhibition match on March 16 at their own Chess Plaza. Five out of these six students have taken my Chess Online courses. Because of the first place Pan Am finish, UT Dallas “A” team will compete in the Final Four of Chess, April 1-3, 2011. Pep Rally to support the “A” team is March 29, 2011, noon at UT Dallas.

Dr. Root should be the Director of the UTD chess program. She understands chess and has done so much for chess at that institution.
