As the holiday season approaches, thoughts of giving and sacrifice are at the forefront. For US Army Specialist Payton Lankford, a sophomore majoring in Health and Physical Education at Oklahoma Panhandle State University, these values are a constant part of his life. SPC Layton embodies what it means to serve others by balancing his academic responsibilities with his duties as a member of the Army National Guard’s 11-B Infantry and caretaker at the Methodist Student Center.
SPC Lankford is committed to selflessness and personal growth in his military and academic roles. “In the military, you’re expected to help your comrades and build each other up to complete a mission,” SPC Lankford shared. “The same values apply here at OPSU, where I support my peers and give back to the community, whether through my role at the Student Center or my daily interactions with others.”

Conner Pritchett, 2024-25 SGA President / Student

“It’s a dream come true to work alongside professionals in the field and gain hands-on experience in veterinary medicine. I’ve always been passionate about animals, and this internship allows me to apply what I’ve learned in the classroom to real-world situations.”
