In its second year of helping parents and children strengthen their relationships, Oklahoma’s University for Parents (OK-UP) is offering a full schedule of free parenting workshops and provider training events beginning Oct. 9.

OSU-Tulsa faculty established the statewide initiative last year to help Oklahomans strengthen parent-child relationships and build positive parenting skills.

Three OSU-Tulsa faculty were recognized for exceptional teaching and research during faculty and staff meetings early this week.

Dr. Claudia Maldonado-Otto, clinical assistant professor of teaching, learning and educational sciences, received the 2018 President’s Outstanding Faculty Award for Teaching. Dr. Hongyu Wang, program coordinator and professor of curriculum studies, and Dr. Stacy Takacs, director and associate professor of American studies both were honored with the 2018 President’s Outstanding Faculty Award for Research.

Oklahoma State University-Tulsa is working together with five other area colleges to improve the transfer experience for Tulsa Community College students who want to pursue a bachelor’s degree.

In its second year as a student organization, the President’s Leadership Society at OSU-Tulsa has nearly doubled its size to 80 members.

The invitation-only group brings together students who have demonstrated academic and leadership excellence for networking, community engagement and professional development opportunities.

The grand opening of the Body Image and Disordered Eating (BIDE) Laboratory at OSU-Tulsa is set for Friday, Aug. 31.

The public is invited to attend the come-and-go event between 3-7 p.m. in Main Hall 1318.
