Ben Hamill Procter (February 21, 1927 – April 17, 2012) was a historian and author who served on the faculty of Texas Christian University from 1957 to 2000.
A native of Temple, Texas, Procter moved with his family to Austin in 1939. He was a four sport letterman at Austin High School, from which he graduated in 1945. After serving in the United States Navy during the last months of World War II, he enrolled at the University of Texas at Austin on a football scholarship. Playing for coach Blair Cherry, Procter led the Longhorns in receiving three consecutive seasons - helping them defeat Georgia in the 1949 Orange Bowl and win a Southwest Conference title in 1950 while earning All-SWC and All-America honors. He was drafted by the Los Angeles Rams of the NFL, but his nascent professional football career was halted by an injury.[2]
After the end of his football playing days,Procter's education continued - first returning to the University of Texas to earn a master's degree and then matriculating to Harvard University, where he earned second master's and a Ph.D.. His academic career began in 1957, when he was hired as an instructor at his father's alma mater, Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, Texas. He became a full professor at TCU in 1968 and eventually became the chair of the history department.
Procter's first book, published in 1971, was a biography of John H. Reagan, a U.S. Senator from Texas who had also served as the Postmaster General of the Confederate States of America during the Civil War. For this work, he received the Summerfield R. Roberts Award for best book contribution to Texas history. He would go on to write, contribute to and edit dozens of other books on Texas and U.S. History, with notable works focusing on the Battle of the Alamo, the Texas Rangers and newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst.
United States Navy during the last months of World War II.[3] From 1979 to 1980, Procter was the president of the Texas State Historical Association.
Procter held the Cecil and Ida Green Emeritus chair in the TCU History Department. He received the Summerfield R. Roberts Award for best book contribution to Texas history. He was a Minnie Stevens Piper Foundation fellow, honored for teaching and research. He was a biographer of newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst and U.S. Senator John Henninger Reagan.[3]
Donald R. Walker (1941-2016), professor emeritus of history at Texas Tech University in Lubbock,[4] called Procter "among the most respected and admired members of the history profession in Texas. He will be missed by students, colleagues. and other historians. ... May he rest in peace."[5]

Early years and education
[edit]Donati grew up in Newport Beach, California and later Pullman, Washington, where his father was a doctor for the athletic department at Washington State University. During that time, the Donatis were neighbors with Washington State football coach Mike Price and basketball coach Kelvin Sampson. |After graduating from Pullman High School, he served a post-graduate year at the Northfield Mount Hermon School in Gill, Massachusetts and then went on to earn a bachelor's degree in political science from the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, Washington in 2001. During his time at Puget Sound, he played forward on the Loggers' basketball team. He graduated from Whittier Law School in 2005.
Career

He would continue working summers with Del Conte throughout his college years and during law school, following him from WSU to Cal Poly to Arizona.
After graduating from law school, Donati worked in management consulting in Southern California for a few years before joining Leigh Steinberg's sports and entertainment agency. During his time as an agent, he negotiated contracts for his old mentor when Del Conte was hired as the athletic director at Rice in 2006 and then at TCU in 2010.
TCU
[edit]Donati rejected several overtures by Del Conte to join his staff at TCU, but amid and Steinberg's well-publicized personal issues and a looming NFL lockout that collectively threatened the stability of his work, he finally agreed to visit the school just after the Horned Frogs' victory in the 2011 Rose Bowl.

[edit]Panther Island, previously known as the Trinity River Vision, is an ongoing infrastructure and urban renewal megaproject in Fort Worth, Texas that aims to provide flood protection along the Trinity River and create a mixed-use waterfront development on an artificial island just north of the city's downtown. Originally expected to cost $360 million and be completed by 2012, the project's price tag has now soared past $1.1 billion and has no defined end date.
Project Overview
[edit]The project is a partnership between a number of entities, including the City of Fort Worth, Tarrant County, the US Army Corps of Engineers, the Tarrant Regional Water District under the coordination of the Trinity River Vision Authority (TRVA)[1].
The vision for Panther Island calls for digging a 1.5-mile river channel across the industrial area just north of downtown, building a series of floodgates and a small dam to create an artificial lake that would stretch from the existing riverfront to the channel. The channel would allow the corps and the water district to regulate the level of the river, which means that the existing levees along the river could be removed. The result would be 800 acres of land and 12 miles of new waterfront rezoned for mixed-use development on an artificial island, connected to the mainland via three new bridges. Existing attractions such as the San Antonio Riverwalk[2] and Granville Island in Vancouver[3] served as inspiration for the project's desired combination of high-density, pedestrian-friendly mixed-used development along the water.
History
[edit]Originally conceived as a way to alleviate pressure on Fort Worth's aging levee system that had been built in response to catastrophic flooding events in the 1940s, planning for the project began in the early 2000s and were first announced publicly in 2003. At the time, the project was expected to cost $360 million and be completed in eight years. A year later, Congresswoman Kay Granger, who had previously served as the Mayor of Fort Worth from 1991 to 1995, leveraged her place on the House Appropriations Committee to get $110 million approved for the US Army Corps of Engineers' work to design the flood control elements of the project.

[edit]In April of 2012, the NCAA put the Baylor men's and women's basketball programs on three years probation and implemented scholarship reductions after an investigation revealed major recruiting violations and impermissable involvement of talent scouts at the basketball clinics they hosted[4]. It was also revealed that one of Drew's assistant coaches had attempted to influence two AAU coaches to provide false and misleading information during the investigation[5]. Drew, who issued a statement accepting full responsibility for the infractions, was cited for failure to monitor the men's program[6] and suspended by the Big 12 for the first two conference games in the 2012-13 season[7].
In April 2021, students at the Daniel Ninth Grade Campus were disciplined after it was learned they were playing a game on social media platform Snapchat in which they assigned prices to particular children of color at the school and would then "trade" them according to that perceived value[8]. Screenshots show that the group chat in which the game occurred was, at various times, labled as "Slave Trade" and other names that included an ethnic slur[9].
