Historical NoteReturn to Top
Founded by Walter Honderich on August 21, 1933, the Students Cooperative Association (SCA) was created out of necessity, born of adversity, and reared amid the domestic discord of ambition, greed, ignorance, inexperience and with the purpose of "making education possible to the founders during a period of poverty." Many of the students lived in what became McGregor House and to be operated on a cost-sharing basis to provide members with their desires. They ran under the Rochdale principles. Their first house for women opened in September 1934. The students of this association are considered representatives for the student body at the University of Washington.
