In this episode of News Beat: From OU Daily, reporter Megan Pratt reviews this week's headlines, including the announcement of five candidates who will interview to be Gaylord College’s dean and simultaneous pro-Palestine and pro-Israel protests which took place in the Oklahoma Memorial Union.

News Beat from OU Daily, a weekly podcast featuring the week’s headlines from the news and culture desks about the city and campus, will release episodes every Thursday. While the weekly episode will range from 8 to 15 minutes, News Beat will release longer, special editions before OU Daily’s print publications launch. Those episodes will feature Daily reporters and editors discussing the stories included in the most recent edition of OU Daily Magazine and other guides.
