Evans was giving such a course several years earlier at his home  
university, the then Rice Institute in Houston  C. F. Roos was his  
student there. For details, see my paper on Evans, to appear shortly  
in HOPE (Vol. 29, Supplement); it is available in Preprint form from  
my Preprint page, linked to my Homepage, at URL noted below.
