There really is no place like Ottawa - check out the information about our beautiful new mural that was shared by our alumni page :

“A new piece of art - and a meaningful piece of our story - now has a home on the Ottawa University campus. The second new mural on campus, located on the south side of Myers Building, celebrates Ottawa, our community, and a connection that reaches all the way back to the University’s founding in 1865. Look closely and you’ll see two river otters featured in the mural. The river otter is the sacred animal of the Ottawa Tribe of Oklahoma - a fitting tribute to the Tribe whose partnership with Baptist missionaries led to the founding of Ottawa University more than 160 years ago. The mural was created by OU alum Ellise Romine ’25, with OU students lending a hand to help paint and bring her vision to life. It was made possible through funding from the American Eagle Better World Foundation, with generous in-kind support from Loyd Builders and Pelton Painting. We are grateful to everyone who played a part in creating this beautiful and meaningful addition to our campus!” 🦦💛🖤
