From the "Ouachitonian": Claire Seale

Genuine. Redeemed. Transparent. These were words used to describe Claire Seale, a junior English major from Little Rock. And it was her story that spurred these precious words to describe her unique personality.

Merry Christmas from Ouachita!

We invite you to enjoy this additional holiday greeting, courtesy of the Ouachita Sounds vocal ensemble.

The beauty of light: Christmas chapel 2019

I remember when I was a kid looking forward to something we did once almost every year. We would get in the car and drive around the city to the blocks or houses that were known to have the best light displays. There’s something special about getting in a warm car on a cold night and admiring beautiful, creative displays of light. If you’ve had that experience, you know that it’s a feeling that’s hard to describe: comfort, safety and a sense of wonder – all at the same time.

From the "Ouachitonian": Tracey Knight

When Tracey Knight moved into Cone-Bottoms dormitory in 1981, she never dreamed that 36 years later she would be walking up its front steps to work every day. For her, Ouachita was a good life. It was home.

From the "Ouachitonian": Jaret Webb

Anyone associated with Ouachita is familiar with Tiger Tunes and the dedication of those who participate in and direct it, including the men and women of the Ouachita Student Foundation (OSF). Jaret Webb, a senior communication sciences and disorders major from Memphis, Tenn., was past the point of familiarity. Tiger Tunes was like family to him.

From the "Ouachitonian": Laura Spradlin

A loud bang like a gunshot, groans of scraping metal and a sickening crunch were heard as a Ford F-250 barreled into a car on the highway, sending it hurtling 30 yards from the original site of impact. What should have been a normal day on her way to school for then 17-year-old Laura Spradlin, a junior music therapy major from Memphis, Tenn., became a life forever altered thanks to a simple blind-spot on the freeway.

From the "Ouachitonian": Mason Woolbright

Most people do not realize their calling until later in life, but for Mason Woolbright, a sophomore business administration major from Benton, his career path was clear from an early age.
