“I credit much of my success in my career to the foundation and preparation I received at OBU. Both my instructors and peers helped shape my worldview and my philosophy toward education. I am grateful for those experiences that have enabled me to follow the Lord’s calling and impact students’ lives in meaningful ways." - Annie Keehn, '16, Oklahoma Rising Star Teacher
