Tuesday, March 4th, 2008OKCU.edu: OCU Law School launches blog and monthly podcast
This is pretty neat and is a great example of one OCU Law’s strong points, its commitment to technology. (I am a little biased though as I worked for the law school’s library tech services folks when I was a student there)

NewsOK: Oklahoma law students are setting benchmarks

Whatever the reason, those […]

OKBar.org: Bar Exam results for July 2006
A big congratulations goes out to all of my OCU friends who passed, but especially to Patrick JoHugh Holman (fellow NLG member) who I know will be raising hell for the common good.

NewsOK.com: OCU graduate starts new lifestyle after trading tattoos for law degree
A pretty neat story but one that is not unique at OCU Law. I’ve known quite a few students who came from difficult backgrounds but who were driven to better their communities and themselves. My hope is that OCU Law continues to welcome such […]

Friday, September 9th, 2005There’s been a good bit of conversation today in the blogosphere about FEMA Director Michael Brown accompanied by quite a bit of ignorant smack talking from wannabe liberal talking heads about OCU Law School (where Brown graduated in 1981, and where I am currently a student)
Here’s a few samples of what some folks are saying…

Friday, September 9th, 2005
TPMCafe.com: How Can Anyone Vote No? — By Elizabeth Warren
A good argument on why the effective date of BARF (a/k/a Bankruptcy Abuse Reform Fiasco) should be postponed, for the sake of those in Louisiana who have lost everything (and will be left with mortgages for non-existent homes).
(For more discussion on this topic be sure […]

I unfortunately did not get to see these Chinese professors at OCU (their in-class presentation was cancelled due to a delay at the Governor’s office in getting their picture taken with Brad Henry, and their later presentation to the whole […]
