Hester Hall has undergone a complete renovation and is ready to serve OU’s international community now more than ever. Following a charge from OU president David Boren, the College of International Studies is expanding their resources to reach more students than ever and plan to flourish in their new $13.5 million hall.

Located at the intersection of Elm Avenue and Brooks Street, many students walk by Hester Hall but few walk through the building. CIS hopes to change that as the 89-year old building completes its 18 month renovation in time for the fall 2014 semester. “A major new feature is the addition on the west facade of the three-story element,” university press secretary Michael Nash said. “This space will provide students with a quiet study area on the first floor. The addition has become the new front door of the college.” Nash said this new space will provide CIS students access to important resources, all within

the same facility. Constructed in 1925 Hester and Robertson Halls were the first dormitories built by the university and were available exclusively for women. The halls housed their last class of students in 1972 and have since served several functions until being closed for renovations. O U ’s d i r e c t o r o f A r c h i t e c t u r a l a n d Engineering Services, Brian Holderread, explains the process of remodeling Hester Hall. “A lot of it was taking what the space gave. They’ve redone what was needed, and it really was a gut and remodel,” Holderread said. SEE UPGRADE PAGE 4&5

Ten football players to watch in 2014 Award watch lists give insight into which Sooners should excel TAMMY BOYD
Life & Arts reporter
OU football has a long and storied tradition of producing outstanding individual players, and this year is no exception. Here are Sooner football players you should track this upcoming season who are already on numerous 2014 preseason award watch lists. Although it is typically the offense that gets the lion’s share of attention and glory, the Sooners are talent-rich on defense also. There are four Sooner defenders on the preseason watch lists, and all four players are on multiple award watch lists. Junior linebacker Eric Striker leads the pack with three award list nominations: the Bronco Nagurski Trophy watch list, the Chuck Bednarik Award watch list and the Lombardi Award watch list. Charles Tapper, junior defensive end, is on both the Bronco Nagurski Award and Chuck Bednarik Award watch lists with
IN DEPTH Football Individual Awards •Chuck Bednarik Award Awarded by the Maxwell Football Club to the college defensive player of the year •The Butkus Award Awarded by an independent selection committee to the nation’s top linebacker •Walter Camp Player of the Year Awarded to the outstanding player of the year “who has exemplified the qualities of self-discipline, unselfish team play, desire to excel, mature judgment and respect for leadership,” according to the Walter Camp Football Foundation Website. •Lou Groza Award Awarded by the Palm Beach County Sports Commission to the nation’s top collegiate placekicker •Rotary Lombardi Award Awarded to the college lineman who best exemplifies the discipline of Vince Lombardi
Striker. Redshirt junior linebacker Frank Shannon is on the Chuck Bednarik Award and the Butkus Award watch lists. Zach Sanchez, cornerback, is a redshirt sophomore and already on the Bronco Nagurski Trophy and Jim Thorpe Award watch lists. Five offensive players, including two linemen and two tight ends, have caught attention, as well. Junior center Ty Darlington is on the watch list for the Dave Rimington Trophy. Daryl Williams, redshirt senior offensive tackle, is on the John H. Outland Trophy watch list. Taylor McNamara, redshirt sophomore tight end, is already on the John Mackey Award watch list. Also on that watch list, is Blake Bell, redshirt senior tight end. Trevor Knight, redshirt sophomore quarterback and 2014 Sugar Bowl MVP, is the offense’s triple award threat, appearing on the Robert W. (Tiny) Maxwell Award, Davey O’Brien National Quarterback Award and Walter Camp Player of the Year watch lists. Last but not least, there is a special teams player also on the
•John Mackey Award Awarded by the John Mackey Award Selection Committee to the most outstanding collegiate tight end •Robert W.

award radar. Michael Hunnicutt, redshirt senior kicker, is on the Lou Groza Award watch list. Previous Sooners, not to mention a slew of others, have won all of these individual awards. It is entirely possible that one of these 10 players, or any number of other highly-talented Sooner football players, might be in the running for even more individual awards as the season progresses. The ranks of OU football alumni include five Heisman Trophy winners, three Associated Press Players of the Year and three The Sporting News Players of the Year. In the history of the OU football program there have been 154 Sooners elected as First Team All-Americans and 462 Sooners chosen as First Team All-Conference. OU has had at least one First Team AllConference selection every year since 1926. For more information about any Sooner football players, visit the team online at soonersports. com.
