Officials have announced plans to launch a national center for homeland security law and policy at an Oklahoma law school.
The Oklahoma City University's School of Law will be home to the new Judge Alfred P. Murrah Center for Homeland Security Law and Policy. Lt. Gov. Todd Lamb called the center a noble effort that will be historic and impactful.
Former Oklahoma Gov. Frank Keating and a former general counsel of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security will chair the center's advisory board.
The center's formal launch will be in April in conjunction with the 20th anniversary of the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. Events will include a memorial ceremony and a conference on homeland security.
