John Tyler Hammons will be sworn in as mayor of the city of 38,000 population next week. But the elect-up won't make him put a stop on his studies in Political Science and Public Administration while serving the people, Hammons now is considering a transfer to a university closer to Muskogee.
"Being elected does not change my desire to continue my education," he said. "We will schedule our time in an appropriate fashion so that I can be mayor and stay in school."
