The philanthropist family that bailed out ORU with an initial $70 million donation may give away a 217-acre campus in Northfield, Mass. Hobby Lobby initially purchased the campus and its 43 buildings in order to donate it to the C.S. Lewis Foundation to start a new university.
Since that organization has been thus far unable to raise the necessary funds to open a university, Mart Green is considering the possibility of donating the property to other applicants for an educational purpose.

Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich made a campaign stop Monday at Oral Roberts University to declare the Obama administration a threat to national security and offer alternatives to the “disastrous policies Washington is imposing on us.”
“All of you should be very deeply concerned about national security,” the former speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives told the Presidents Day crowd in Tulsa, Okla. “Barack Obama is the most dangerous president in modern American history.”
Gingrich painted a picture of a passive Obama, whose reluctance to defend the nation and identify enemies for the sake of political correctness has put the nation in jeopardy. Gingrich cited Obama’s failure to address Iran as a legitimate threat to Israel and the world, his welfare stance that promotes laziness, the president’s failure to create jobs on American soil and his “war on religion.”
“My number one message is that we can change this,” declared Gingrich. “Defeating Obama becomes a duty of national security.”
