CORONAVIRUS UPDATES
Last Updated March 23, 2021
Dear Norman Campus Community,
OU is preparing to return to in-person classes at regular capacity university wide for the Fall 2021 semester. This has been a challenging year, but with the increase in inoculations and the continued following of safety measures, the university is prepared to return to face-to-face classes.
As more information is provided by OU, we will share it here on our site.
NEW ARMORY UPDATE
Last Updated July 19, 2020
The graciousness of the Mulva Family Foundation allowed for a full renovation of the Armory and a portion of the CATE 4 in support of AFROTC HQ – this renovation resulted in a 100% overhaul of the entire inner portion of the facility, boasting new state of the art amenities, spacious classrooms, showers, cadet study lounge, weight room, and Cadre and staff offices. The outside remains the same but with some amazing enhancements; all new period style windows, doors, fresh mortar, and refreshed brick. We are highly anticipating our move back to the Armory which represents a long, rich history of our program.
As of June, we are scheduled to start he move-in process during the first week in August. This process will be long and arduous but I ask everyone to bear with us as we get settled in. I will propose a date for an “Army Ribbon Cutting Ceremony” outside of the University Ceremony. As of now, I do not have any dates from the University but we can do something on our own and then participate with the University as well. More to follow as we push forward through the move-in and get the school year on track.
