History

The first student organizations were established on the campus of Michigan State University Oakland -- soon to be Oakland University -- in Fall 1959, as the first students were taking their first classes. The first two decades of students organizations at OU are documented in Holly Waddell's study, "Student Organizations at Oakland University 1959-1980" which can be found in this collection.

Scope and Contents note

The Student Organizations collection contains a variety of files documenting the many student organizations at Oakland University. The files were gathered from multiple sources over a long period of time. The Student Organizations series is organized by student organization, providing basic organizational information for each. Administrative files include reports, memos, financial files and other documents produced by student organizations and their advisory board. The 1960s and 1970s are better represented than more recent decades.
