Assistant Professor of Architecture Thomas Cline has completed the design, fabrication, and installation of a tabernacle for the St. Thomas More University Parish in Norman, Oklahoma.  The existing parish and student center was designed by Raymond Yeh, FAIA, former Dean of the OU College of Architecture.
