Jennifer Callahan named to Oklahoma A&M Board of Regents |
McAfee & Taft attorney and director Jennifer Callahan was unanimously approved by the Oklahoma State Senate to serve an eight-year term on the Board of Regents of the Oklahoma Agricultural & Mechanical Colleges, effective immediately. Founded in 1944, the nine-member board is responsible for managing and overseeing Oklahoma State University, the largest university system in the state of Oklahoma, as well as Langston University, Panhandle State University, NEO A&M College, and Connors State College.
Speaking before the Oklahoma Senate’s Education Committee, Callahan emphasized her commitment to providing students who grow up in Oklahoma with educational opportunities that will encourage them to not only earn their undergraduate degrees here, but to also stay in Oklahoma to pursue careers and contribute to the state’s economy.
“I am very passionate about agriculture,” said Callahan, who also owns and operates ranching operations in the state. “Our country’s economic engine has been built on a strong agriculture base, and I see our success as a country continuing to depend on healthy and vibrant agriculture.”
