About the Richard Gelwick Endowed Lecture Series
The Richard Gelwick Endowed Lecture Series was created to honor the memory of Dr.
Richard Gelwick. Gelwick encouraged the exploration and discovery of how science,
faith and reason can help improve solutions to challenging public policy issues. An
ordained minister and scholar, Dr. Gelwick addressed the dilemma of combining modern
medical science with religious values and human needs in his life work. The Gelwick
Endowed Lecture Series brings nationally prominent speakers annually to the University
of Houston to discuss the importance and meaning of ethics in society.
