Alumni

join us for homecoming 2016

We have more than 30 events planned for your enjoyment during the Nov. 10-12 weekend--including ELI TALKS (six academic lectures representing ORU's colleges).

Review the entire Homecoming schedule here.

One of the weekend's highlights will be the Friday-night Homecoming Celebration Dinner. That's when we'll honor our 2016 Alumnus of the Year award winners! They are:

Jon (1984-86) & Ann Molitor '86 Dunagan—Distinguished Service to God
Jan Dargatz, Ph.D. '72—Distinguished Service to the Alma Mater
Ron Bryce, M.D. '82, '86—Distinguished Service to the Community
Allan Sawyer, M.D. '88—Distinguished Service “In Every Person’s World”

If you arrive on Nov. 9, we would love to see you in chapel (10:50 a.m., with Rev. Samuel Rodriguez) and at the Christmas in the Gardens Celebration (6-8 p.m.).

ORU is better than ever--and we're building once again. Included in the schedule are tours of the new Global Learning Center (opening soon) and of the campus; remodels and updates of academic spaces and offices are amazing. Work on the new ONEOK Sports Complex is also moving forward. This will be a wonderful facility for our track and field athletes and our tennis teams...and for the community.

The GLC and the Sports Complex are the result of funds raised through the 50th Anniversary Comprehensive Campaign. The next big project is the apartment-style residence hall for upperclassmen. There's a new $55 million "stretch" goal, and we're at 87% in gifts and commitments. You can help us wrap up the campaign; just click here if you would like to do so. Thank you--and we'll see you at Homecoming!
