Scope and Content Note
Organized into three series: I. General files; II. Historical information; III. Brochures. Series I is arranged chronologically.
General files include meeting agendas and minutes, correspondence (administrative and requests for funds), financial reports, and rosters. Historical information includes an undated statement about the club by Edwin T. Reed and meeting excerpts regarding dues structure. A general OSU information brochure (funded by the club) and an OSU Bands brochure, both ca. 1968, are also included in the records. The bulk of the material dates from 1966-1975.
Historical Note
The Century Club was founded in 1933 as a part of the Corvallis Chamber of Commerce in order to "support a strong OSU public relations program and to finance University projects for which no state funds are available." Projects funded have included special publications, OSU Band and Choralaires concerts off-campus, slide presentations, and aerial views of campus.
