More good ORU news
Just for Mark, here is some more good direct news concerning ORU. As students we received the following email yesterday:
"Green Family Commits $10 Million for Summer Renovations
The excitement continues to grow on the campus of Oral Roberts University. On Wednesday, Jan. 28, Dr. Mark Rutland was chosen as ORU’s third president by the ORU Board of Trustees. In a closing meeting on Thursday, it was announced that the Green family will donate $10 million for renovations on the ORU campus this summer.
This additional gift will build on the $10.4 million of tremendous renovations that have already been realized on the campus from last summer as a result of the initial gift of the Green family. Some of the renovations from last summer included renovations and remodeling in the library; restoration of the porches of the Learning Resources Center and Graduate Center; a new gazebo; additional walkways and sitting areas; new wiring to the dormitories; new microfridge units in every dorm room; total renovation of Zoppelt Auditorium; new lobby furniture in many of the dormitories; and new carpet, furniture, game tables and flat panel televisions in the lobby of the Towers dormitories. Projects intended for this summer are being determined.
In other Board news, two members have been added to the ORU Board of Reference. The two additions are Stephen Strang, founder of Charisma magazine and founder and president of Strang Communications Company, and Terry Law, founder and president of World Compassion."
I think it very interesting that Stephen Strang is climbing on board by participating on the Board of Reference for the school. If memory isn't failing me he was pretty critical of the school, Richard Roberts, and all just a few months ago in Charisma...isn't it funny how God's blessing changes opinions.

I have seen so many lies posted. The best one is the one Triumphant 1 did his best to combat. You know, the hair cutting party thing?
Prominent members of this board chose to believe the lie and even continue to spread it, even though T1 had totally proved it was false.
