40- Oil Overlords select James Gallogly to be next OU President…
Published: March 26, 2018
What We Said: "Some people may be alarmed that the oil industry has further tightened its grasp on our state government and educational institutions, but I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. First of all, oil, money and football have controlled the University of Oklahoma since the 1950s. This isn’t anything new. Second, at least Gallogly is open and transparent about his loyalties to oil companies, the Republican party and other corporate interests. Basically, he’s not a hypocrite about it like David Boren."
