OU President David Boren is home from the hospital and "has done remarkably well" following a heart bypass surgery March 20, OU press secretary Matt Epting said in an email.

Boren will be recuperating for a few weeks, Epting said in the email.

"He really misses the OU family and appreciates all the well-wishes he has received," Epting said.

Boren has continued to serve in his position during his recovery, but he missed the March 23 President's Associates Dinner, where J.D. Vance, author of "Hillbilly Elegy," spoke.
