ADD YOUR NAME: support SNAP/EBT benefits and a student living wage!

This past April, the ASOSU Student Government passed Senate Resolutions 82.05 and 82.06, which call on OSU to expand SNAP/EBT accessibility on-campus and institute a living wage for all student workers.

Visit the links and QR codes on our slides to add your name to these resolutions. Students on SNAP/EBT deserve access to the same food locations that other students have. We deserve a wage that guarantees a safe and dignified living for the work we do on our campus.

As the costs of food, housing, and education continue to rise, these issues affect us all. If you are experiencing food, housing, or other material hardships, please visit at Champinefu Lodge for support. SNAP application assistance, temporary housing, free textbook lending, and other services are available to help you navigate your needs. Students survive hard times when we support each other and speak up.

Our Story

In 1900 the first student body organization at Oregon Agricultural College was unanimously voted into being with subsequent faculty approval. the organization was called the Student Assembly. Charles H. Horner was elected the first president. Throughout the early years of the 20th century this student body supervised The Barometer, Oratory and Debate clubs, Athletics and the Student Council. The Student Council's duty was to formulate and enforce regulations and discipline as directed by the student body.

A brief history:

In the 1920's the term "Associated Students" was adopted and the student council became known as the Associated Students of Oregon State College.

During World War II ASOSC was involved with raising more then $1 million in U.S. War Bonds.

In 1944 Marguerite Johnson (already notable for being the first woman elected Vice President) became the first woman President of ASOSC.

In 1948 the ASOSC Senate was established.

In 1959 the ASOSC passed the resolution to change the name of the school from Oregon State College to Oregon State University.

In the early 1960's ASOSC lobbied the Oregon Legislature to change for the institution's name to Oregon State University, and on March 6, 1961 Governor Mark Hatfield signed legislation officially changing the name to Oregon State University.

In the 1970's ASOSU helped create the Black, Hispanic, and Native American Student Unions, and their subsequent resource centers.

1974 The ASOSU Office of Legal Advising was established.

1977 ASOSU approved funding for a gay student association.

1987 The Minority, Women and Gay and Le***an Student Affairs Task Forces were established.

1988 Office of Legal Advocacy was established. Ride Share, a precursor to the SafeRide Program was established.

1990's: Textbook Exchange service established.

ASOSU won a 10 year long legal battle against OSU over student health insurance money. OSU was required to pay all of ASOSU's legal fees and was chastised for threatening students with criminal charges.

2000's: ASOSU was involved with the installation of the blue lights around campus.

2004: Q***r Resource Center was established.

This is abridged history of ASOSU leaves out many important things that ASOSU was involved with over the decades. A more complete history will be available on the ASOSU website.
