Political Science Students Celebrate Debo Project

Nov. 23, 2009

OSU students celebrated the completion of a semester-long project titled “Angie Debo’s Oklahoma” on Nov. 20 at Murray Hall. The project was part of an Oklahoma Politics class taught this fall by political science Regents professor Bob Darcy and OSU President Burns Hargis.

As part of the class, the students studied the life and work of Debo, a leading scholar of Indian and Oklahoma history. “This is a great piece of work about a great woman,” Hargis said about the project.

At the reception, the students presented Hargis with a framed photo of the class.

Nov. 18, 2009

One of the Ukraine’s most distinguished musicians, Leonid Hrabovsky, will participate in a free concert of his own music performed by faculty of the OSU Department of Music at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 21, in the Seretean Center Concert Hall.

Born in 1935 in Ukraine, Hrabovsky graduated from Kiev Conservatory in 1964. He taught composition and theory at Kiev Conservatory and later moved to Moscow to become musicological critic for Sovetskaya Muzyka magazine.

“Professor Hrabovsky was one of the first avant garde composers in the Soviet Union at a time when the musical avant garde was politically taboo,” said Keith Tribble, coordinator of Hrabovksy’s visit and a professor of Russian studies at OSU.
