Do reasonable people believe acceptance of our differences is a bad idea? Inclusion is a good thing. DEI gets murky when people are hired or promoted due to their amount of melanin in their skin. Makes for a lengthy discussion with many complexities. Pros and cons on both sides.

I think the original intent of the DEI programs was to hire / promote people regardless of the color of their skin, or the name on the title of their resume. Also to make us conscious of inherent biases.

Chris Harmon
It was significantly different for Keaston Willis this time against ORU. And only in good ways.

Willis scored 22 points to lead TU to an 85-76 victory Wednesday night to win the Mayor’s Cup in front of 3,906 fans at the Reynolds Center.

From someone that worked there, students go for one of two reasons. The 1st is, it's their only choice because their parents made it for them. It's a sheltered protective bubble where they can continue to shield them from experiencing the outside world. The other is because they truly believe in the prosperity gospel and a place like ORU will help them towards that. In the charismatic, evangelical Christian world, church planting is a big deal. In the end it's nothing more than a Ponzi scheme and the pastors of these churches have figured out a way to profit off the word of God.

ORU has 1 academic program that is comparable in quality to anything TU, OU, or OSU have and that's the nursing program.

As a Christian myself ( which means we know we are not perfect or anywhere close to it which is why I need Christ ,think is forgotten about way too much ) I couldn’t agree more . There are so many of these “ churches” that just want to make money off of hurting people looking for hope , it’s a horrible thing. People like Joel Osteen and Kenneth Copeland are examples of this.
Ps - not trying to shove my beliefs on anyone , just wanted to point out how many misuse the Church

Nice defensive game despite allowing them to get back into the game in the last 12 minutes of the game.

I think this was more a product of our piss poor offense in the last 5 minutes. I was wondering if Haith had come back and decided we should run the clock out by standing around and jacking up bad 3's in the last 5 seconds of the shot clock, or even worse, jack up a 3 5 seconds into the shot clock while you're up 15 with under 5 to play.

ORU people are the most annoying insufferable group I’ve ever seen. Why the hell would anyone ever go there? What a weird ass cult
