Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Friday, November 28th, 2025.
We're starting today with some sports action on the hardwood. The University of Tulsa Golden Hurricane, sitting undefeated at five and zero, is heading to a neutral site game this afternoon against Kent State. The Golden Hurricane have been rolling, winning their last five games convincingly. They're shooting nearly 44 percent from the field while holding opponents to just 37 percent, so they'll be looking to extend that momentum today. Kent State comes in with a three and four record, so this should be a good matchup for TU to stay perfect heading into the heart of conference play.
Speaking of the University of Tulsa, the campus is buzzing with activity as we head into the holiday season. This week marks the final days for students to handle some important deadlines. Today is the last day for fall semester withdrawals and pass-fail declarations, so if you've got a student in the family, make sure they handle those before the end of business today. Looking ahead, the university is gearing up for some holiday giving opportunities, including the fifth annual Goldie Tree project where student veterans are helping supply gifts for children of TU students and faculty. It's a great reminder of how our community comes together this time of year.
On the public safety front, we do want to flag an incident from yesterday afternoon on US-169 near County Road E-16 up in Nowata County. A three-vehicle chain reaction crash left all three drivers injured. The Oklahoma Highway Patrol responded to the scene. While we don't have specifics on the severity of injuries, it's a good reminder to take extra care on our highways, especially with weather conditions changing.
Looking at what's happening around town, there's plenty to explore this weekend. Whether you're catching up on cultural events or grabbing a meal out, there are activities throughout our community. The University of Tulsa campus has ongoing exhibitions and events, and various local entertainment venues continue to welcome guests.
For those thinking about Tulsa's future, there's been quite a bit of conversation lately about our city's growth and development. The Tulsa Remote program continues to make headlines nationally as a strategy to bring in new residents and remote workers, though like any rapid growth initiative, it comes with both opportunities and challenges that longtime residents and newcomers are navigating together.
As we head into the weekend, keep an eye on the weather and make sure you're taking precautions, especially with severe weather season always a consideration here in Oklahoma. Bundle up and stay safe out there.
