Description
The Associated Women Students (AWS) organization was established in 1924 for the purpose of furthering the educational, social and cultural aims of women. It served as an umbrella group for Oregon State’s women’s living groups, honorary societies and clubs. AWS sponsored a variety of activities, such as war bond and stamp fundraising drives during World War II. The Dean of Women served as the organization’s adviser and liaison to the college’s administration. The AWS became inactive in June 1970.
