University to Dedicate Newest Student Housing

By The Daily Oklahoman

Dec. 3–Oklahoma Christian University will dedicate its newest and most advanced student housing at noon Monday.

Guest speakers include longtime Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce President Paul Strasbaugh, and Hardy Watkins, president of the Edmond Chamber of Commerce.

“Quality housing has been a top priority for several years,” OC President Mike E. O’Neal said. “Oklahoma Christian has always provided its students a rich learning environment, but these new facilities incorporate state-of-the-art features and compete with the very best student housing nationwide.”

The two new student residences, called University House, are part of the school’s $34 million housing construction and remodeling project and provide 98 new beds for sophomore women and 108 new beds for sophomore men. Total cost of this phase of the project is $9.5 million.
