  • The University of Tulsa • Class of 1960 Memory Book Greetings from the President
    The University of Tulsa • Class of 1960 Memory Book Greetings from the President Dear Friends: As members of the TU Class of 1960, you have witnessed dramatic changes – in civil rights, technology, commerce, and in the realm of what is possible for humankind. You have certainly noted the dramatic changes to our campus since your day, as well. In the past decade alone, we have doubled the value of our campus through an aggressive program of construction that continues today with our Lorton Performance Center and engineering expansion. For all the physical changes you can see, many others are taking place in less obvious areas. Year by year, our student body is becoming more academically distinguished and more geographically diverse. Our research enterprise is expanding and last year attracted a record $22 million in funding from outside sources. And we are increasingly partnering with other organizations – Gilcrease Museum, OU-Tulsa, the George Kaiser Family Foundation, the Kendall-Whittier Neighborhood Association and many others – to bring about change in our community. We are grateful when our alumni return to help us envision change and build an exciting future. You do that through service on our advisory boards, giving to our Annual Fund, mentorship of our student interns and hiring of our graduates, active participation in your local alumni chapter, and in many other ways. Your very participation in Homecoming 2010 helps strengthen and renew our family. As this weekend winds down and you leave campus to return to your regular routines, I encourage each of you to remember that you are part of TU’s ongoing success.
