A History of Ouachita Baptist University – Ouachita Baptist University (OBU) is an independent, residential institution in the liberal arts tradition associated with the Arkansas Baptist State Convention. Founded on April 8, 1886, it capped a longstanding interest among Arkansas Baptists in making higher learning more readily available to more people, providing an educated ministry and educated lay leadership, strengthening denominational loyalty, and extending denominational influence. This year, the school celebrates its 125th anniversary. Join Trennis Henderson as he discusses the anniversary theme, “Ouachita Baptist University: Making a Difference since 1886.”

Legacies & Lunch is sponsored in part by the Arkansas Humanities Council. Bring a sack lunch; drinks and dessert are provided. This event is free and open to the public. For more information, call (501) 320-5717.
