This sculpture is of three women who appear to be affluent ladies of the 1930s. Indicating OU president David Boren's contempt for women, the sculpture is named "The Gossips." Oddly, one of the women is holding a dead bird.

The name of the statue obviously trivializes women and indicates Boren's sexist attitude that only men talk about important things.

As for the bird, I originally assumed that this was a dead duck, but a friend has pointed out that maybe it is a dove -- the symbol of peace. That actually makes more sense, since as a U.S. Senator David Boren acquired many friends in the military establishment. Among his close friends are the Bush family, George Tenet, and Secretary of Defense Robert Gates.

In the video narration I mention OU president Boren's contempt for women. I also mention the fact that he resigned from the U.S. Senate in 1994, with two years remaining on his third term, for reasons he did not disclose to his constituents.

The reason for Boren's resignation was that he was being outed in the gay press and accused of sexually harassing his male staff members. Go here for documentary evidence.

Go here to see the video and commentary about his "Sphinx" sculpture. What it actually represents is the ancient Greek Demon of Death.

  • Ok first of all I'm not going to tell you to keep your opinion to yourself, you're entitled to that just as everyone else, but I dont see why or how you try to turn everything on the campus to represent Borens views and the "fact" that he was in skull and bones. What is your obsession with Boren and OU even? And my name is Taylor Britt since I see you called someone out for not posting their name

  • You people continue to insult me with your claim that I am "obsessed" with Boren -- who is an absolutely repulsive miscreant. If I am obsessed with anything, it is justice, which relies on truth. Boren is a liar and a buffoon. He is ruining OU financially and during his years it has become a lie machine. You refuse to see this. Take off your blinders. I am a native Oklahoman and OU graduate. It had its flaws when I attended there, but at least it was a REAL university.

  • Bushisame0 tries to discredit me by expressing doubt that Boren is a Skull and Bones member. He puts "fact" in quotes to indicate his doubt. I invite bushisame0 to see my video: 911 Suspect David Boren Admits to Being a Skull and Bones Member.

  • I am sorry Mr. Wright but I just didn't catch the connection between the Sphinx and death in this sculpture, is the duck supposed to represent death?

  • The bird IS dead. It is being held upside-down by the neck.

    It was suggested to me that the bird might represent the dove of peace. As a U.S. Senator, Boren was very much a military hawk.

    The OU "sphinx" has the exact physical characteristics of the demon of death in Greek mythology.

    Boren is a member of Skull and Bones, the Yale secret society. See my youtube video about it. This was originally broadcast by ABC news, and presents evidence indicating that S&B is a Satanic cult.

  • I am actually quite fond of this sculpture. Keep your opinions and poor taste in artwork to yourself.

  • Damn, you Boren-lovers are so tyrannical -- just like boss Boren himself. Do you actually think I'm going to obey your order to "keep your opinions to yourself"? I know you're looking forward to the day when your slavemaster Boren will be able to consolidate a total dictatorship here and make you the doorman in his palace, but it just ain't gonna happen, fool. If you don't like my opinions, meathead, here's some advice for you: don't watch my videos !

  • Is it possible that they are gossiping about why the duck is dead?

  • Your statement is nonsensical jibberish. What exactly is a "borderline fact" which is "only partly true"? Do you have any EVIDENCE to contradict any FACTUAL statements I have made about Boren? I don't mean suspicions or opinions I have voiced. I mean FACTUAL statements. I have presented much evidence in support of my suspicions and opinions. While howling many insults, none of the Boren-lovers yet have come up with any reason which would cause a rational person to discard my evidence.

  • Sir, I am not on his payroll. That's an absurd assumption. You just copied and pasted your last message for the rest of the reply. That's fine, honestly I am just frankly appalled by your distaste for a university that you attended. You also support your claims about Boren with borderline facts that are typically only partly true. Thats fine if you want to present your case in such fashion but honestly I am not sure you are making any clear point at all.
