Whether you donated to the annual campaign, sponsored an event or donated in-kind services, you made a difference in Allied Arts’ capacity to provide critical funds and resources to 44 art nonprofit organizations. In turn, these organizations reached more than one million people through a wide range of cultural programs – from blockbuster visual art exhibits to intimate poetry readings, and from free festivals and low-cost events to Oklahoma premieres of acclaimed theatrical productions. With Allied Arts funding, more than 700,000 arts experiences were delivered to Oklahoma schoolchildren throughout the state. You helped bus rural and low-income urban students to the capital city to tour an exhibit, watch a play and engage in hands-on artmaking. You also helped transport the arts to school auditoriums and afterschool sites, as well as place teaching artists and integrate arts education into the schools that need it most. Furthermore, Allied Arts agencies remained at the forefront of using the arts as a healing agent. From guitar and ceramics lessons for veterans to dance classes for those suffering from Parkinson’s disease, you played a part in helping the sick, disabled and hospitalized heal faster and use the arts to cope with their condition.

Stratton firmly believed that a 3 clear focus on these things would, as he put it, “help us go places we may not have thought possible even a few years ago.” With Stratton’s leadership, much progress was made. Our city reflected on its imperfect past and took steps to increase equity, access and opportunity even as residents en- joyed more direct flights and overwhelmingly approved funds for capital improvements.

LETTER FROM THE CHAIR Throughout the Greater Oklahoma City Chamber’s 131-year history, when difficult challenges arise, the Chamber has stepped forward to tackle issues while looking for new opportunities to build for the future. When COVID-19 hit the OKC area in March, the impacts to our business community were immediate, and for many devastating. The Chamber began immediately doing everything possible to provide information, identify potential support and look for any possible opportunity to help businesses losing revenue due to this monumental shift. At the same time, we never took our eye off the ball, keeping a strong focus on the future of Oklahoma City. Preparing for the new convention center and post-pandemic push for tourism growth, supporting local business expansion and recruiting new companies to the region, advocating for business at our state capitol, and helping to bring businesses together for virtual networking and information. This report highlights our efforts this year, but is certainly not an exhaustive list of the work we have accomplished together. Our membership can be proud of what we have done together and confident that we can continue to imagine a bright future.

  • In This Issue... Spent 20 Minutes Telling Him About How Busy We Are at + Freshman Admission & Journalism Minor the J-School
    Spring 2010 J-School program expands to meet student needs eginning in the fall, the J-School will imple- ment two major structural changes to boost the program’sB flexibility and ability to adapt to student needs: freshman admission and a new Journalism Minor in News and Media Innovation. “Students told us what they wanted and we listened,” Journalism Dean Ann Brill said. “These changes will allow more students to make their home in the J-School earlier in their college careers.” Freshman Admission J-School admission will remain competitive and selective, but the new freshman admissions policy revises admission requirements and reduces some of the barriers students now encounter. The first class of freshman admits were notified of the changes earlier this month. The students who received the admission letters were enthusiastic. “All of the feedback we’ve received thus far from students has been overwhelmingly positive,” A bronze Jayhawk statue welcomes Brill said. “Now students can make the J-School students to the KU campus. home from day one. We are excited at what this means for our students—more networking, mentoring and advising opportunities ear- lier in the academic process.” The freshman admissions policy outlines three “pathways” students can now use to enter the School. The first is for elite Journalism Scholars, formerly called Direct Admits. (Admission changes – continued on page 2) Letter from the Dean ne of our visitors recently asked me if things were Leonard Pitts Jr., Pulitzer Prize-winning colum- “slow” at the J-School.

Wilson Policy Counsel Matthew F. Wood Policy Director Free Press 1025 Connecticut Avenue, Suite 1110 Washington, DC 20036 202-265-1490 December 21, 2012 SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTION Free Press respectfully submits these comments in response to the Federal Communications Commission’s recently released report on the ownership of commercial broadcast stations (Form 323 Summary Report). As that report shows, and as the Commission acknowledged when it sought further comment, women and people of color hold broadcast licenses “in disproportionately small numbers.” 1 The record in this proceeding and in prior ownership reviews demonstrates conclusively that increased media consolidation and concentration work to keep those numbers low – harming rather than helping diversity of ownership, diversity of viewpoint, and the other public interest goals that the Commission’s policies purport to serve. We appreciate the opportunity to comment on the report, though the truncated comment cycle coming after the Chairman’s office circulated a draft Order leads us to believe this is an exercise in optics, not a serious attempt to give consideration to this critical issue. 2 The Commission, which afforded the public an additional comment period only after interested parties stressed the need for further analysis, characterized itself as “going the extra mile for transparency” as it concluded the 2010 Quadrennial Review.3 However, the Commission has hardly gone the extra mile.

  • 2018 Annual Report Tulsa’S Future Regional Map Tulsa’S Future Regional Map Letter to Investors
    2018 ANNUAL REPORT TULSA’S FUTURE REGIONAL MAP TULSA’S FUTURE REGIONAL MAP LETTER TO INVESTORS Tulsa’s Future is an investment in both the near- and long-term vitality of our region. In the near term, we had remarkable success in 2018. Tulsa’s Future surpassed the five-year goal to generate $1.1 billion of new capital investment in northeast Oklahoma a full two years early. From Sofidel’s $360 million facility in Inola to Amazon’s $130 million fulfillment center in Tulsa, 2018 was a banner year for new business attraction. However, we can’t rest on our laurels. The cities with which we compete for capital investment and new jobs have enjoyed equally impressive growth. To maintain this level of new economic activity, we must take steps now that will yield returns a generation later. In 2018, the Tulsa Regional Chamber made a strategic decision to realign its economic and workforce development efforts. By combining these two imperatives, we’re following industry best practices and prioritizing northeast Oklahoma’s talent needs in the coming decades. Tulsa’s Future will continue to focus on the regional talent pipeline, with a heightened emphasis on both the needs of our existing employers and the kinds of employees we must attract to grow key industry sectors. As an investor in Tulsa’s Future, you actively support and sustain the economic prosperity of our communities. Thank you for believing in the potential of the Tulsa region and for helping northeast Oklahoma realize a more prosperous future. Thank you, Jeff Stava Sid McAnnally TULSA’S FUTURE 2018 ANNUAL REPORT 2018 Chair, Tulsa’s Future 2018 Vice Chair, Economic Development Oversight Committee Tulsa Regional Chamber COO, Tulsa Community Senior Vice President, Operations Foundation, GKFF ONE Gas 1 CELEBRATING A RECORD-BREAKING YEAR In 2018, northeast Oklahoma celebrated the LARGEST CAPITAL INVESTMENT in Tulsa’s Future history.

When you think of the word “local” what comes to mind? Does it bring to memory your favorite place to eat, your local hangout, or your local place to worship?
