18, 2008 Where this immediate region of the country hopes to be culturally, historically, economically and politically are all questions to be addressed during Northwestern Oklahoma State University’s inaugural Centennial Symposium “Visions and Crossroads: Northwest Oklahoma – Our Next 100 Years” on Friday, April 25. 
“The Symposium is a unique opportunity for people of all ages and occupations to come together and share ideas about creating the vision for our next 100 years as a region,” said Dr. Kay Decker, chair of the social sciences department and head of the symposium committee. “The Southern Great Plains has undergone significant transformation demographically since the late 1800s,” Decker said. “Native cultures have been relocated or displaced, white settlements have come and in some cases gone, but our geography remains constant. How can we as a region take charge of our natural, social, historic and cultural resources to create our ideal tomorrows?” April 16, 2008 Members of the Northwestern Oklahoma State University campus community, as well as the general public, are welcome to visit the Fifth Annual Northwestern Art Society (NAS) Art Show today through April 26 in the J.W. Martin Library on the Alva campus. 
University students and employees have a number of items now on display, including oil and water color paintings, pencil drawings and photographs, which seems to be the favorite entry category.“We have photos entered in every category we offered, so I hope people will come to the library to view the work of the talented people we have at Northwestern,” said Angelia Case, NAS sponsor. The show is free and open to the public during the library’s regular hours. Read more...
