COLLEGE OF THE OZARKS GRADUATES RECORD NUMBER OF STUDENTS AT ITS 104TH COMMENCEMENT

At the 104th College of the Ozarks Commencement, a record number of 338 students received their bachelor’s degrees.

Among the bachelor candidates was the second class to earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the College’s nationally-accredited Armstrong-McDonald School of Nursing. Two ROTC cadets, Austin Truelove and Brent Turpin, were commissioned as Second Lieutenants in the United States Army.

The College also awarded three honorary degrees in recognition of outstanding achievement and greater distinction in professional and civic leadership.

In honor of her public service to Missouri and the nation, the College presented United States Congresswoman Jo Ann Emerson (Missouri, 8th District) a Doctor of Public Service.

Dean of the College Dr. Marilyn C. Graves received a Doctor of Laws for her 40 years of dedicated service to College of the Ozarks.

Vice President Dr. Howell W. Keeter, too, was awarded a Doctor of Laws for his 40 years of dedicated service to College of the Ozarks.

Congresswoman Emerson, the first Republican woman to represent Missouri in Congress, gave the Commencement address. She shared with students the importance of preparation and hard work for leadership in the 21st century.

Commencement was held the afternoon of May 8.

College of the Ozarks is a fully-accredited, four-year Christian liberal arts college where students work campus jobs for their college education, allowing them the opportunity to graduate debt free.

Branson, MO – Branson Entertainment Network announced today the launch of a brand new Television Show, The Circle B Variety Show.

The 30 minute live-to-tape show will feature members of the Horn family, the Riders of the Circle B and a special guest each week. It will be filled with songs, jokes and interviews similar to the old variety shows of the past.

“The show is about bringing wholesome entertainment back to television,” says Musical Director Michael Horn.

The Circle B Variety Show will be filmed at the Circle B Ranch just off the Branson 76 strip at 200 JoJess Parkway and is free to the public. Doors open at 10:30 am every Friday in May and the second two Fridays in June.

You can see The Circle B Variety Show on demand on several web-cast related Branson websites including www.bransonnetwork.com. The show will make its debut on May 13th with special guests Jim Barber and John and Sara Tweed.

More and more producers are flocking to the new world of online broadcasting due to the high cost of production and declining viewership of traditional television media. This show will bring a worldwide audience to Branson and show the travelers of the world why we are known as the Live Entertainment Capitol of the World.
