ORU Scandal.

The IRS warned ORU about the way the university handled its political programs, and evidently that warning was ignored.

Jeremy Burton, a spokesman for ORU, confirmed that ORU was first contacted by the IRS in a letter May 3, 2006.

The letter stated that the IRS was investigating ''whether we participated in political programs inappropriately for a 501(c)(3) organization,'' Burton said in an e-mail to the Tulsa World.

ORU answered the IRS' questions and received a follow-up letter with additional questions on July 25, Burton's e-mail states. The university responded to those questions as well, he said.
