Lights on Stillwater to SHOWCASE community about their organizations.

We have a ton of vendors that can show you different ways to have fun in Stillwater...so overall they can expect to get very well connected to OSU and the Stillwater community. “ Businesses ranging from restaurants to boutiques will set up booths outside the stadium where attendees can receive coupons as well as items such as t-shirts, cups and other prizes.

At booths for student organizations, freshmen can ask questions and receive information about campus involvement.

Attendees are welcome to browse more than 200 booths.

This event is a popular one: more than 5,000 people went to Lights on Stillwater last year. Farrell said with the growth of the freshman class, he expects even higher attendance this year. Because of the large crowd

Boone Pickens Stadium will become a center of local businesses and student organizations from 7-9 p.m. Wednesday.

At Lights on Stillwater, an annual event, the community comes together outside Boone Pickens Stadium so Oklahoma State students can discover what the city of Stillwater has to offer.

Admission to the event is a dollar or a donation of a canned food item.

Student Government Association Vice President Brayden Farrell said it’s a great way for incoming freshmen to learn about the city they just moved to.

“We have students coming through, and they know nothing about Stillwater,” Farrell said.

“We have tons of students’ groups that are ready to come in and talk

OSU’s School of Hotel and Restaurant Administration receives new name Dar nell Poin ter S taf f R epo rt er @ O c olly

Oklahoma State University’s School of Hotel and Restaurant Administration, established in 1937, will now be known as the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management.

“The name change is something we have been considering for years because we are more (than) hotels and restaurants,” said Lyn Putnam, Marketing and Sales Manager at OSU’s School of Hospitality and Tourism Management.

“With the name change, we are able to widen our umbrella to more things that fall under Hospitality and Tourism Management.”

One-third of the students in the school are on the event planning track, so changing the name was not a hard choice.

“The new name also represents the full array of educational opportunities available in our academic program,” said Ben Goh, assistant dean and director of the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management, in a news release.

The name change reflects a reorganized academic structure for the school, which includes four specializations: event planning, lodging management, food studies and beverage management.

Students will not need to worry: most classes on the curriculum will not change.

OSU’s School of Hospitality and Tourism Management offers a businessfocused curriculum that emphasizes critical thinking skills, problem solving and communication techniques with real-world experiences.

In a news release, College of Human Sciences

Dean Stephan Wilson said the new name reflects the evolution of the hospitality industry.

“This is certainly a signal that the school is reconfiguring itself to address that latest challenges and opportunities in hospitality and tourism education, and ensure a bright future for its students and alums,” Wilson said.

Goh said he believes the name change will make the students better in their careers.

“In order to remain a high caliber academic program, our students need to experience the industry’s newest and brightest options,” Goh said.

Fitting the pieces inTO OSU receiving corps puzzle Cam e ron Jo u r dan Asst. Sports Editor @ Ca m _Jour da n

Tyron Johnson patiently sat and watched, knowing his time was coming.

Next week, Johnson, an LSU transfer, will walk into Boone Pickens Stadium for the first time since he has been eligible to play a game. It’s something he has thought about for more than a year after transferring to Oklahoma State.

Johnson missed last season because of NCAA transfer rules but still practiced with the Cowboys. During that time, he watched hours of film. He studied opposing teams’ tendencies, watched where his new quarterback, Mason Rudolph, liked to throw and asked a lot of questions.

The offense is still a blur at times. At LSU, Johnson was used to huddling up in a slower-paced offense. The Cowboys run and gun.

“I had to condition and hit the weight room hard to keep up with these guys,” Johnson said. “I had to learn to play Oklahoma State football.”

Johnson, a former fivestar recruit, caught nine passes for 150 yards and two touchdowns in his lone season in Baton Rouge.

There is still a lot of question about what Johnson can bring to OSU, but his upside adds more depth to the outside.

Marcell Ateman adds even more depth at the position. Ateman’s outlook on the game changed after he missed all of last season.

The summer before was one of the best times for Ateman’s career. He was on the Biletnikoff Award

preseason national watch list, was coming off his best season in 2015 and receivers coach Kasey Dunn said his game had only improved since that season.

A non-contact foot injury suffered during offseason drills cut Ateman’s season short. Although early beliefs were Ateman had a chance to be on the field toward the end of the season, his foot never fully healed from surgery and he was forced to redshirt his senior season.

“When you go through something so much, you kind of forget the meaning behind it,” Ateman said. “I feel like having that year taken away from me really built my purpose. It helped me gain and remember why I was really playing the game.”

Ateman, a 6-foot-4, 220-pound receiver has bigger aspirations for this season. Every play could be his last, so that’s how Ateman said he’s going to play every time he runs a route, blocks for a screen pass or catches a touchdown.

Ateman wasn’t the only receiver who was sidelined in 2016 because of injury.

Dillon Stoner, who showed untapped potential in the four games he played in last season, was sidelined for most of the year because of a foot injury. Stoner had surgery and was forced to join Ateman on the sidelines, watching his teammates and wondering what if.

Defeated, stymied and stonewalled partially described Stoner’s reaction when he got the news his season was over. His feet had just gotten in the pool before the lifeguard made him get out and watch the

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 23, 2017

other kids play while Stoner sat, waiting for his moment.

“I felt during that time I grew as a person mentally and spiritually,” Stoner said. “With how well my body filled out, (the injury) turned out to be a huge blessing in disguise.”

Stoner showed he could make an impact on the field before his injury. Johnson is a former five-star recruit.

Ateman earned respect in 2015. All three receivers have shown potential, but how they fit into the system now is almost unknown.

Despite the question marks, combined with James Washington, Jalen McCleskey and Chris Lacy, OSU could possess the best receiving corps and offense in the country. Not to mention Rudolph, who gets the opportunity to throw the ball to a plethora of talent.

“I think anytime you have the depth we have, even if we have an injury, were going to have a guy step up into those roles,” Rudolph said. “It’s a fun group of guys to go to work with every day. They’re a group of jokesters, but they know how to take every rep seriously and compete.”

OSU receiver James Washington was named to the AP Preseason All-America team.

Washington named to AP All-America team Staff Reports @Ocolly Oklahoma State wide receiver James Washington was named to the Associated Press’ Preseason All-America team, the AP announced Tuesday.

Washington was one of two receivers named on the first team, along with Texas A&M’s Christian Kirk.

Last season, Washington earned first-team All-Big 12 honors after being second in the league with 1,380 receiving yards. Washington set career highs in receptions (9), receiving yards (296) and longest reception (91) in a 45-38 win against Pittsburgh.

ESPN’s Mel Kiper ranked Washington as the No. 1 senior receiver NFL draft prospect in the country.

Washington leads all Power Five conference receivers with 2,923 career receiving yards.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 23, 2017

The entire Cowboys team and staff, as well as Kiper, have spoken highly of Washington during the offseason.

“He’s unbelievably athletic,” quarterback Mason Rudolph said at Big 12 Media Days in July. “He’s a track guy. He’s a speedster. He’ll run a 4.4 or 4.3 at the combine here in about seven months. His character I think jumps out to me the most. He’s never been a guy for the limelight. He wants to be the humble guy, he’s a hard worker.”
