Lorene Rogers : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lorene Rogers Lorene Lane Rogers (April 3, 1914 – January 11, 2009) was an American biochemist and educator who served as the president of the University of Texas at Austin in the 1970s, who has been described as the first woman in the United States to lead a public university. ==Early life and education== Born on April 3, 1914 in Prosper, Texas as Lorene Lane, she was awarded a bachelor's degree from North Texas State Teachers College (now the University of North Texas), majoring in English. She met her husband, Burl Gordon Rogers,〔Burl Gordon Rogers (1914–1941) graduated from the University of North Texas in 1935 with a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry (North Texas Yucca Yearbook)〕 while attending North Texas State Teachers College. After graduating from North Texas, Rogers became a school teacher. Her husband, Burl Rogers, was a chemist. He had graduated from the University of North Texas in 1935 with a Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry and taught at the University of Texas until about 1940. Around that time, he accepted a job from a chemical company, General Aniline Works, in Linden, New Jersey, where, in 1941, he died from injuries of a laboratory explosion.〔Hevesi, Dennis. ("Lorene Rogers, President of University of Texas in ’70s, Is Dead at 94" ), ''The New York Times'', January 25, 2009. Accessed January 26, 2009.〕 At a time when biochemistry was a "field dominated by men", Rogers decided to follow in her husband's footsteps, figuring that "if he liked chemistry so well, that she wanted to pursue it also." She earned a master's degree and a doctoral degree in biochemistry from the University of Texas at Austin and taught at Sam Houston State College (now Sam Houston State University) before returning to Austin, Texas.〔
