The Harris County chapter of the Political Association of Spanish-Speaking Organizations (PASO) was formed in October 1961. Its purpose was to advocate on behalf of Mexican Americans.

    Texas Institute of Letters July/August/September 2011 Newsletter _____________________________________________________________________________ It’s time to pay your dues for fiscal year 2011-12. Please use the form at the end of this newsletter when remitting them. _____________________________________________________________________________ Hoggard Newest Texas Institute of Letters Fellow Congratulations go out to James Hoggard of Wichita Falls, who has been named a Fellow of the Texas Institute of Letters. Members of the TIL Council voted Jim the honor at its September meeting in Dallas. Being named a Fellow of the Institute is rare indeed. Jim is just the 14th person to be so designated in the 75-year- history of the organization. Council members believe that about 10 years have passed since the last Fellow was selected. The bylaws do not provide a definition for a TIL Fellow. However, by tradition, persons named TIL Fellows have established a considerable and well respected body of work as well as contributed to TIL at a high level over the course of several decades. Officers, members of the Council, and other members of TIL look to Fellows for guidance in dealing with issues confronting the Institute. “I was deeply moved when told I had been elected a Fellow,” Jim said. “I’ve always thought of that honor as something one doesn’t aspire to, though it does bring to one – at least it has to me – great respect for those who have received it. I’ll add, too, though, that I’ve had great respect for those same ones long before they received the honor. I was moved when I got word that I was being asked to join TIL, and through the years a number of things associated with TIL have moved me.
