Couldn't have done it without you...Thanks!

 The Gaylord Prize is the single largest event of the year for the Gaylord College. It may look effortless but it takes a small army of staff and students to pull off an event of this size.
Having our own in-house video production and event production team gives the event that extra kick of quality and interest that other groups on campus can only dream about. Students created the videos that showcased outstanding projects like NSAC, StormCrowd and Sooner Sports Pad as well as coordinated all of the lights, video and audio production at the actual event.
 A big thank you goes out to the team of students led by Scott Hodgson.

Spend the month of July in Arezzo, Italy. An ancient yet vibrant town nestled in the hills of Tuscany, Arezzo offers easy access to cultural and economic centers such as Florence, Rome, and Siena.

Arezzo and the surrounding area is the birthplace of renown artists, poets and musicians such as Michelangelo, Petrarch, and Guido Monaco. Fans of the Academy Award winning film Life is Beautiful might recognize Arezzo's many medieval tower homes and Renaissance churches.
