    (OREcC !99 f.. OSU Through the 20th Century If a graduate of Oregon Agricultural College from the early 20th century were transported in time to the present day, he or she would scarcely recognize Oregon State University at the close of the century. Oregon State has been transformed from a small agriculturally oriented college in a somewhat remote portion of the western United States to a Carnegie I research university with internationally renowned programs. During the 1899-1900 academic year, Oregon State's enrollment was 405 students (398 from Oregon); its faculty consisted of 28 members. At the end of this century, OSU's enrollment is approaching 15,000 students (from every state and nearly 100 countries); the faculty consists of 2,200 members. Listed below are the major highlights of OSU's history in the 20th century.* 1901- First Branch Experiment Station establish at Union (15 miles southeast of La Grande). 1904 -Approval given by the Board of Regents to allow international students to attend the college for the first time. 1907 -William Jasper Kerr appointed by the Board of Regents as the sixth president of the Agricultural College of the State of Oregon. Kerr, who served as president until 1932, led the college through a 25-year period of growth in terms of students, faculty, academic and research programs, and physical facilities.First professional degree conferred; an M.S. degree in engineering. 1910- First reference to "Beavers" as an athletic team name. 1928 Memorial Union, first privately funded building on campus, completed. Building dedicated June 1, 1929. 1929 -The Oregon State Board of Higher Education assumed control of all state (public) institutions of higher education in Oregon on July 1 after the Legislative Assembly approved the Oregon Unification Bill, which provided for the unification of the state-supported institutions of higher education under a single board.

  • William Jasper Kerr
    WILLIAM JASPER KERR A Biography By EDWIN THOMAS REED B.S., A.B., Litt.D. EDITOR'S NOTE The late E. T. Reed, editor of publications at Oregon State College from 1912 to 1943, finishedthis biography after he became Editor Emeritus, 1943-48 This typescript has beenprepared for binding by the Office of Publications and is presented to the William Jasper Kerr Libraryas source material on the history of Oregon State College. WILLIAM JASPER KERR Inherent dignity and height Gave him imposing grace, And smiles that sparkled warm and bright Made luminous his face. He set high standards, and with ease Won students in support; No liquor, no tabacco, please; Clean living; honest sport. 'Twas thus the campus came to be A place reserved and high From cotmnonplace offenses free And virgin as the sky. All obscene and indecent hints Aroused his righteous wrath; With sinews tense and hard as flints He drove them from his path. Expert in budgets and finance, A master builder, too, Skilled architects mapped in advance The plans he carried through. When chaos seemed about to crash In some destructive hour, And lightning shafts began to flash He taught that "poise is power." Forgiving to the poignant end, He owns no enemy, But counts his keiest critic friend, In magnanimity. Who knows the motive of his acts Cannot remain his foe; Give him, directly, all the facts, That he may see and know. For half a century he ruled In education's realm, His hosts of students nobly schooled While he was at the helm.
