Weatherford, OK – Southwestern Oklahoma State University (SWOSU) alumni and friends gathered on April 27, 2026, for the annual SWOSU Everett Dobson Golf Classic. Held at the prestigious Oak Tree National Golf Course in Edmond, the sold-out tournament raised just over $107,000 to support SWOSU Men’s and Women’s Golf programs and other Bulldog athletic programs.
Established in 2015, this popular philanthropic event was initiated by Everett Dobson (SWOSU Class of 1981 & 1999 Distinguished Alumnus) of Edmond in partnership with the SWOSU Athletic Association.
Dobson has endowed the Everett Dobson Chairs in Business, Marketing, Management, and Finance in the Everett Dobson College of Business & Technology at SWOSU and provided the private investment necessary to construct the Everett Dobson Golf Training Facility on SWOSU’s Weatherford campus. In 2015, Dobson was inducted into the SWOSU Presidential Order of Merit in recognition of his 25 years of service on the SWOSU Foundation, Inc. Board of Trustees, where he served as Investment Committee Chairman.
