Historical NoteReturn to Top

Prior to 1900, the Clerk of the College kept all student records in ledger books. This early office in the Administration Building (now Benton Hall) was part of the President’s Office. The Registrar’s Office as an official function is first mentioned in the Oregon Agricultural College Catalog of 1903. The Registrar’s Office originally had responsibility for recruitment of students, admissions, registration, and maintenance of student permanent academic records. In 1960, a separate Admissions Office was established at Oregon State University.

Professor John B. Horner was the first to have the title of Registrar at Oregon Agricultural College and held the position from 1901 to 1910. The following individuals have been Registrar at Oregon State University: Juanita Rosendorf (Acting), 1910-1911; Harold Manley Tennant, 1911-1922; Erwin Bertran Lemon, 1922-1946; Daniel Thomas Ordeman, 1946-1962; Wallace Eugene Gibbs, 1962-1991; Barbara S. Balz, 1991-2007; Thomas K. (Kent) Kuo, 2007-2013; and Rebecca Mathern, 2013-.

Eva Blackwell began working in the Registrar's Office in 1924, after graduating from Oregon Agricultural College. She held various positions, including Assistant Registar, until her retirement in 1965. She returned to work for the Registrar's Office in May of each year through 1981 to compile statistical data for the graduating class.
