Rotation can significantly change the moment of inertia of a main sequence star. As a result, the ZAMS rotation rate need only be within about 30 percent of the critical value in order to reach critical rotation during the hydrogen burning stage. Calculations of the evolution of rotating stars show that the Be stars result from a normal (Maxwellian) distribution of B-star rotation velocities.
