Two OSU business professors, Dr. B. Curtis Hamm and Dr. Jeanine Rhea, will be inducted into the Oklahoma Higher Education Hall of Fame on October 2 at the Oklahoma History Center in Oklahoma City.
Hamm, professor emeritus in marketing and Rhea, professor of management, were among the ten individuals from across Oklahoma chosen to receive the state’s highest honors for educators.
Hamm, who taught at OSU for more than 38 years, has been honored locally with a fully endowed scholarship in his name. He has traveled and lectured extensively and is currently involved with efforts to establish funding for a new building for the Spears School of Business at OSU.
Rhea, who started work at OSU in the ’70s, broke new ground with courses directed specifically at women and minorities. She was also instrumental in helping establish the annual Women’s Business Leadership Program. Rhea is also the namesake for a fully funded scholarship endowment.
