Technology
In August 2001, OC became one of the few college campus nationwide at that time to provide campus-wide wireless Internet service and a personal laptop computer to every full-time student. In 2008 Oklahoma Christian University began providing Apple’s MacBook to all full-time students and faculty. Included with each MacBook is the choice of an iPhone or an iPod touch. Beginning with the fall 2010 semester, students also have the option of choosing an iPad for an additional charge.

Famous quotes containing the word technology:
“The successor to politics will be propaganda. Propaganda, not in the sense of a message or ideology, but as the impact of the whole technology of the times.”
—Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
“The real accomplishment of modern science and technology consists in taking ordinary men, informing them narrowly and deeply and then, through appropriate organization, arranging to have their knowledge combined with that of other specialized but equally ordinary men. This dispenses with the need for genius. The resulting performance, though less inspiring, is far more predictable.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
“If we had a reliable way to label our toys good and bad, it would be easy to regulate technology wisely. But we can rarely see far enough ahead to know which road leads to damnation. Whoever concerns himself with big technology, either to push it forward or to stop it, is gambling in human lives.”
—Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)
