News has been pretty light on this one. The only story I found incorrectly stated this was being built at OSU-Tulsa in Greenwood.
This seems like a big win-win and a positive thing for Tulsa.. maybe that's why the news is ignoring it and you have to read about it in an advertisement:

Good catch. I am glad to see this finally happening. So I guess this is going on the west side of the river?
I know they must have a reason for putting this new facility where it is going. But one cant help but wonder if it would have been nicer if OSU had more of its Tulsa stuff all in one location to build up a solid, attractive campus.
This is an extension of the OSU Medical Center, that is why it is going there. There are two TulsaWorld articles now. I didn't realize how amazing this is but the OSU-Tulsa Foresncis program is one of only 8 in the nation. That means if you want to go into forensics, you may be headed to Tulsa!

Good thing or not their re-inspection is this year. Last inspection is what caused us to vote (last Go Bond ) for funding a new updated one (at a lower cost) because they failed the certification. Tulsa got to keep certified though on the promise of updating the lab.
Oh I forgot this:
