Former Senator David Boren Uses Clout and Power as President of the University of Oklahoma.

Healy, Patrick

Chronicle of Higher Education, v43 n13 pA32-A34 Nov 22 1996

David L. Boren, former governor and Senator, has become the most powerful president in the University of Oklahoma's history. Boren wants to give the university the feel of a small private college. His stature gives him flexibility to act decisively and quickly. However, some faculty feel his priorities are wrong and others feel he's moving too fast. (MSE)
