Historical Note

A legislative enactment of 1890 founded Washington State University, originally called Washington Agricultural College and School of Science. Actual operation began in January 1892. The enabling act normally is used to date university events, and accordingly the 100th anniversary was observed in 1990.

A system of several committees had responsibility for the University centennial, while the Office of University Relations served as staff and coordinators. The principal coordinators, Dan Peterson and Sonia Hussa, maintained the records of the centennial activities and projects.
