Cameron University history professor Dr. Sarah Eppler Janda has co-authored Oklahoma Reconsidered: A History with Dr. Patricia Loughlin, a history professor at the University of Central Oklahoma. Former Oklahoma Lt. Gov. Jari Askins authored the foreword. Oklahoma Reconsidered provides a concise and conversational history of Oklahoma from the 1700s and into the 21st century and shows how the state has been shaped by wars, epidemics, civil rights movements and unified efforts to heal after devastating terrorist attacks.

Cameron University has received approval in its first step to add two new associate degree programs, both specifically responding to a growing need in healthcare services. During a meeting earlier this month in Oklahoma City, the Board of Regents for the University of Oklahoma, Cameron University and Rogers State University unanimously approved CU’s request to develop associate in science degrees for an occupational therapy assistant program and a physical therapist assistant program.

Cameron University is inviting alumni to return to campus next week to join current students in celebrating its 2026 homecoming, “Road to Gold.” Student activities will run Monday, Sept. 28, through the following weekend, with alumni activities taking center stage on Friday and Saturday, Oct. 2-3.
