September 3, 2008 The C.W. Wisdom Trust and the Wisdom family continue to show their support for Northwestern Oklahoma State University through a second major gift in as many months. Five pieces of farm equipment was given by the Wisdom’s to Northwestern’s agriculture department to aid in the school’s effort to begin an agriculture education program. The equipment includes a John Deere 4840 tractor, a 39-foot John Deere spring tooth, a 24-foot Krause double fold disk, a 22-foot John Deere chisel, and a John Deere 3710 six-bottom plow. “We have worked for nearly a year in securing the necessary approval and support to begin an agriculture education program,” said Dr. Janet Cunningham, university president. September 3, 2008 If the northwest corner of Northwestern Oklahoma State University’s campus could talk, it more than likely could share a number of stories about events and activities that have taken place there through the years. 
On Tuesday, members of the campus and local community can witness one event in person as university and city officials dedicate the Green Space that was created following the demolition of Oklahoma Hall. Everyone is welcome to gather at 5 p.m. at the Green Space area, which is at the corner of Eighth Street and Oklahoma Boulevard. Alva Mayor Arden Chaffee will join Dr. Janet Cunningham, university president, in sharing a few remarks about the area. Dr. Sandra Petree, associate professor of English, has written a special poem to commemorate the event. It will be read during the ceremony as well. Read more...

September 8, 2008 In order to graduate, mass communications students at Northwestern Oklahoma State University are required to complete a minimum of 140 hours working as an intern at a chosen place of business. This opportunity gives students the freedom to choose their path in the mass communications field. While being an intern for a newspaper, television or radio station, or at a public relations firm, students can utilize skills they have gained through their college classes. This hands-on, “real world” approach shows students what to expect upon graduation and when entering the workforce.
