who have shown outstanding achievement in personal or professional endeavors.
Alumni Achievement Award Teresa Stuart Forst ’72
Terry is truly a professional cattlewoman. Serving as the family head of the state’s oldest operating ranch and as president of the Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association, Terry has taken her profession to a new level. The Stuart Ranch is Oklahoma’s oldest continuous family ranching operation which today covers 42,000 acres crossing three counties near Waurika in southern Oklahoma. The ranch can be traced back to 1868 to Terry’s great-great grandfather Robert Clay. The ranch conducts a fall season stocker operation and has its own beef cow herd of Hereford and Angus. A large part of the Stuart operation is a registered American Quarter Horse breeding program. They also develop ranch horses that are used for everyday ranch work while having the ability to compete in ranch horse competitions
