Scope and Content Note
Arranged chronologically. Magazine published by the Alumni Association
for distribution to alumni and friends of the University. It contains
information on campus activities, research and teaching, athletics, and
alumni news. Previous titles were OAC Alumnus from 1916
through Mar 1929 and Oregon State Monthly from Apr 1929 through 1937.
Since 1940 it has been titled the Oregon Stater. It has been
published at least several times per year since its inception and for a
period was issued monthly during the academic year (10 issues per year).
From 1972 through the Sept. 1999 issue, it was published 4-6 times per
year as a tabloid-type publication. Beginning with the December 1999
issue, the Oregon Stater is published 4 times per year as a
4-color magazine.
From the fall of 1937 through the summer of 1940, the alumni magazine
was issued as a weekly news supplement to the campus newspaper, the
Barometer. These 1937-1940 issues are available on the microfilm
of the Barometer (PUB 15-11b). Photocopies of all of
these issues and a bound volume of issues from Oct 1939 through May 1940
are also available in this publication group.
