Board of Regents meeting in Tulsa

RSU items approved

Dr. Larry Rice presented several items to the University of Oklahoma Board of Regents Monday in Tulsa. Though the media was swarming to the meeting to hear whether or not the regents will approve a pathway for conference realignment, Rogers State University presented for approval a posthumous degree to the family of Sgt. Andrew Peterson.
Peterson was killed in action during a patrol in Afghanistan. He had completed hours for the Associate's Degree, Rice said. Regents unanimously approved the posthumous degree that will be awarded to his parents.

Dr. David Boren presented 26 items to the regents before the conference realignment.
The board of regents voted to go into executive session to discuss realignment, possibly moving Oklahoma to the Pac-12 which has been widely speculated.
