This memorial on campus is a gift from 419 Outreach to the students of Oklahoma Christian University, to thank them for their support. The memorial consists of a cross cut of steel from the World Trade Center's North Tower, a slab of granite salvaged from the Murrah Federal Bldg, and two Survivor Trees (one from each site). Representatives from NYC and OKC were on hand to help plant and dedicate the 9/11 Survivor Tree and OKC Bombing Tree.
