Historic Appointment

Stacy Leeds has been appointed as the university's 22nd president. A sixth-generation Oklahoman, graduate of UTulsa Law and the first woman to permanently take the role, she calls this new chapter an honor and profound homecoming. 

Emphasis on Energy

Big changes are coming to North Campus and the McDougall School of Petroleum Engineering thanks to a generous gift from alumna Katherine B. Wallgren. The donation also will establish an endowment to launch UTulsa's new energy initiative. 

Transfer Trajectory

A single mom of five, Kelly Parsley wasn't certain a college education was within her reach. But thanks to a life-changing scholarship and support from the Oxley College of Health & Natural Sciences, she's building a new life for herself and pursuing her dream of becoming a doctor.
