About the Ann Lacy Center

Dedicated on December 10, 2003, thanks to a gift from trustee, Dr. Ann Lacy, the visitor center is the university’s gateway for prospective students, alumni, friends and all visitors of the university.

The building formerly housed the United Methodist Church’s Oklahoma Conference offices and was extensively renovated to include a third floor.

Tenants consist of core recruitment and marketing departments to include admissions (undergraduate, graduate and international), visitor services and institutional advancement (alumni, development and university relations).

Furnishings throughout the building were donated by a number of university benefactors. Dr. Lacy took a personal interest in providing furnishings for the building that would be warm and welcoming to provide a good first impression of the university.

The Ann Lacy Admissions and Visitor Center is located on Blackwelder at NW 24th Street. Visitor parking is available on the east side of the building or directly across the street in front of the Clara Jones Administration Building.
