Calling all OCU graduates of sociology, criminal justice, justice studies, and the master's...OCU Sociology and Justice Studies Alumni countdown to homecoming: Nov. 3rd Sociology and Justice Studies will have a post-game tailgate cookout. Directly after the guys basketball game in Freede, about 4:30 or 5. We will be directly south of the gym. We will have all the food, but please bring a canned good for Northwest Classen's food pantry.

From Andrew Rose a teacher at Northwest CLassen...The food pantry started in 2009 when our teachers recognized a growing need from our students. Many came to their teachers asking for food, and some even expressed they didn’t have much to eat at home. Our population is close to 95% free/reduced price lunch. So we started the pantry and asked teachers to donate. The response was very positive, and since its inception, the food pantry has been stocked and maintained by the faculty and staff of NWC.
If you need anything other details, you can reach Andrew at [email protected]
