The Academy, Honors In addition to the European Study Program, OBU has been a leader in offering other academic programs which are uextran features. The university is accredited by the National League of Nursing and is one of only a few uni- versities offering a program leading to a bachelor of science degree and registered nursing certification. OBU is the only school in this region offering a degree in hospital adminis- tration, and the success of this program has received national attention. Another feature is student honors work. OBU's honors study program enables select upperclassmen to do advanced work, over and above their regular academic program. The university is expanding this program to include outstanding freshmen and sophomores, providing greater challenge and opportunity for these students. Another feature enjoyed by all students is the emphasis on the Fine Arts. Not only does OBU offer excellent music instruction, the musical production of student groups en- riches the cultural life of all students. Such organizations as the Bison Glee Club, the Bison Chorale, the Tuneclippers, and the Bisonettes, are known throughout the state for their talent. Cary Brackeen, and Robert Gregg, students this summer in the Academy, work together on a science problem. A senior nursing major, Jean Blood, hrowses through the library in Oklahoma City where she is completing requirements for the nursing degree.

Bison Hill Provides Christian Atmosphere For Collegiate Life OBU'S campus provides a beautiful setting for attaining excellence. lts buildings of Georgian design create a gracious atmosphere with the most modern facilities. Students find the new periodical reading room of the library an excellent place to study. The air-conditioned room with its well-lighted tables and easily-accessible shelves make term papers and reports less painful. The modern language laboratory is an important phase of the language student's study. This facility enables stu- dents to hear tapes of their lessons and to participate in lab sessions with their professor. Technical equipment allows the professor to listen in on the students and judge their progress in mastering the speaking of a language. Yarhorough Auditorium brought a new teaching technique to OBU. Visual aids such as an overhead projector and sliding blackboards make it possible for all class members to see. Fold-up desks on the auditorium seats enable the room to double as an auditorium and a classroom. Modern classrooms, fully-equipped labs, and gym facilities lend an appropriate setting to the achievement of academic excellence. One of the many beautiful sunsets behind John Wesley Raley Chapel.
