OU was the principal beneficiary of the estate of Ida and Henry D. Mosier, whose names live on in the hearts and minds of many OU students and supporters through scholarships and through the Mosier Pharmacy Building at the OU Health Sciences Center and the Mosier Indoor Athletic Facility on the Norman campus.
Mr. Mosier, an early-day OU track star who earned his pharmacy degree in 1912, practiced pharmacy in Edmond for more than 40 years, but made his fortune buying and selling central Oklahoma farmlands while retaining the mineral rights. He died in 1966. Ten years later, his wife willed the major portion of their estate to the University to benefit Mr. Mosier's two interests as a student: pharmacy and track.
