Anyone here go to OU?

[Ohiosam]

A good friends son is a med student at OU, he suffered a serious head injury in a motorcycle accident. Another friend and I are trying to arrange to travel to Athens to bring jimmie's things home.

We would like to find some Jimmie's buddies to help but are trying to avoid bothering his parents right now more then we have to. I tried FB but cant find him there. I thought if anyone here attends OU they might be able to figure out how I might contact someone for help.

Pm me if you think you can help and I can give you the full name.

I believe it's an off campus apartment. I hope to get more info soon. We've tried to not bother the parents for these kinds of details.

Thanks for the offers to help everyone, I'll stay in touch.

I also am only 10 minutes away from mid campus. I'll help in any way possible.

 

[Ohiosam]

I appreciate the offers to help. It looks like we have at least 8 of Jimmie's friends that will be there to help when we go Saturday. I wish I had time to meet up with some of you that live around there. I thank you for the offers to help but it looks like we'll have it covered.

Good work man

Just a heads up. Its 'move in' weekend so give yourself plenty of time. Traffic is always a pain and parking gets frusturating.

 

[Ohiosam]

Thanks for the heads up Gordo!! I didn't know that. I just went through that last weekend at OSU.

 

[Ohiosam]

Those of you that are OU alums would have been very proud of your school today.

At least 20 kids showed up to help.

all this got packed up, carried down 3 flights a stairs and loaded in a 14 ft trailer in an hour and a half

Good to hear Sam. As an alum, I am proud. :smiley_clap:

[Gordo]
