titansforever Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I found this link embedded in a story on the Kansas City Royals radio affiliate Web site. (They were profiling Tulsa, and talking about the city's Art Deco architecture, and raised the subject of ORU's architecture.) It's good to know that if this photographer came back today to take photos of the same sights, he would be shocked at the improvements! By the time summer is over, we will have some UNBELIEVABLE photos to show off! Zoppelt alone is really going to knock people's socks off. http://www.flickr.com/photos/losttulsa/sets/72057594062472318/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cletus Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Thanks for the pictures, Mike. ORU is looking better and better all the time, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Yeah, Mike. For those of us who rarely have a chance to get to campus, your pics are a bit like a connection to home. I may be getting overly nostalgic here but I think the age fits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Minyard Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I'll try to post more pics throughout the summer so we can see the progress. I know it's tough for you guys that are out of town. Hopefully all you guys are on board with the Renewing the Vision campaign. If you had doubts about the "new" ORU... you can see your money will be used to improve the school. The current campus projects are from the original $70 million gift from the Green family. I've been told they don't think they can get all the work done to the dorms in just one summer so it might take two or three summers to get it done. Claudius right now looks like a war zone. That dorm is completely torn apart right now so they can upgrade electricity, trash system, etc. It should look much improved by August.
