Now it s time for Oklahoma Christian to celebrate our history in a big way this year. Several events are planned throughout the year to mark the legacy of Oklahoma Christian and to look forward to the next 50 years. Those are some of the tangible facts. The more interesting tidbits might be what we can t tally, but what comprises our own personal memories of having been a student at Oklahoma Christian. The 50 Year Committee, co-chaired by Dr. Stafford North, distinguished professor of Bible, and Alfred Branch, executive vice president and chief operating officer, has been meeting regularly to plan events to be held throughout the school year.
Homecoming is another event to bring alumni back to campus.
Homecoming is scheduled November 5 and 6, 1999. In addition to events, there are other ways we are celebrating 50 years. It is a treasure trove of memories for every alumnus, parent or friend who has supported this remarkable institution. Filled with colorful photographs and insightful narrative, this coffee table keepsake captures the essence of what has built Oklahoma Christian s reputation for being one of the best universities of its type in the nation. It chronicles the story of Christian education in Oklahoma from its roots in Cordell to its subsequent founding in Bartlesville and its eventual move to Oklahoma City.
