Description: Marian Murray was an instructor in the Department of Home Economics Education in 1946. She was born in 1924, in College Place, Washington. She received her Bachelor of Science in Home Economics and Education from OSC in 1946. She was the Secretary of the OSC’s Mortar Board chapter, and was the editor of OSC Omicron Nu, and was also a member of both the American Home Economics Association and the American Association of University Women. She was hired to cover for Miss May Du Bois’s sabbatical leave, and was hired at $2,400 for ten months of service. She was also to do the secretarial work for the department. Dean Milam (who Murray listed as a reference on her application) later requested some of Murray’s labor be used in the School of Home Economics for winter term. The Department of Home Economics Education instead employed an assistant for part of Murray’s duties, allowing her to spend 28% of her time helping Dean Milam.
