As president of OU, Harroz led the development of the university’s Strategic Plan – a comprehensive strategy that positions OU as one of the nation’s leading public research universities marked by a transformative student experience. At the heart of the plan is the university’s fundamental purpose – We Change Lives – three small but powerful words that carry deep meaning. The complete Strategic Plan is available at ou.edu/leadon.

I Sing Because I'm Happy
by Franci Hart
“I sing because I’m happy. I sing because I’m free. For his eye is on the sparrow and I know he watches me.”
