President Lyndon Baines Johnson signs the legislation creating the National Endowment for the Humanities and the National Endowment for the Arts in September 1965. The August 27 centennial of LBJ's birth affords an opportunity to consider his lifelong commitment to education, his college days in San Marcos, and his experience as a classroom teacher.
