2023 marks the passage of 175 years since the Texas legislature passed "An Act to Establish a State Penitentiary," which established the first state prisons in Texas and its oversight board. We will be observing the anniversary through November, with a few light-hearted and historical posts. To kick things off, we asked employees to pronounce the Latin word for the 175th anniversary: Demi•semi•sept•centennial.
