University says it won’t change its name

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma Christian University will not be changing its name.

For several months, university officials had looked into a potential name change for the school in far northern Oklahoma City, surveying various campus constituencies during the process.

But during a chapel service on the campus Monday, university President Michael O’Neal said the name “Oklahoma Christian University” enjoys goodwill and is highly regarded in the local and national community.

O’Neal says he thinks the university can build increasing brand value by keeping the name.

Oklahoma Christian is a private college affiliated with Churches of Christ. It has an enrollment of about 2,000 students.

State to get HUD funding for disaster recover

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The state of Oklahoma will get nearly $1.8 million to help pay for recovery efforts from spring storms, tornadoes and flooding in four counties.

U.S. Housing and Urban Development Secretary Steve Preston announced Tuesday Oklahoma will receive $1,793,876 from HUD’s Community Development Block Grant Program.

The money will be used to repair homes, businesses and infrastructure in Craig, Latimer, Ottawa and Pittsburg counties.

The counties were hit by the natural disasters from May 10 through 13 and President Bush issued a major disaster declaration for the four on May 14.

The funding is part of $200 million dollars being sent to 15 states affected by natural disasters.
