2. May Workinger, School of Education placement secretary, August 1954

Description: Clytie May Workinger was a secretary in the School of Agriculture and Vocational Education, and an Appointment Secretary. She was employed at OSC from 1910 to 1955. She was born in 1889 in Shedds, Oregon. She began at OAC in 1910 as a stenographer for $600 per year. She took a number of other positions as secretary, including in the Office of the Dean and Director of Agriculture, and with the School of Agriculture. She took the position of Secretary of the School of Vocational Education in 1918, for $1400 per year. In 1923, she was given the rank of Assistant Professor, despite the fact that she did not have a bachelor’s degree. She joined the Placement Office in 1928, where she remained for the next 27 years. In 1927, she took a leave of absence to stay in Arizona. She had contracted tuberculosis and her physician advised her that with rest, diet, and heliotherapy for several months she could get the disease under control. While on leave, she kept in touch with her office, visited schools where OAC students were teaching, and visited schools where she thought she could place teacher graduates the following year. Many people expressed their appreciation for Workinger’s work. L.B. Mayfield, Assistant Superintendent of City Schools, wrote that she was always available and ready to help to the point that she “appeared to be on a twenty-four hour day.” Her help directed them to “think of Oregon State first in filling our vacancies.” H.E. Summers, Chief of the Bureau of Readjustment Education, wrote that she was a “true ambassadress of good will and the ideal for which Oregon State College stands.” She retired in 1955 as an Assistant Professor Emeritus of Education. She was a member of the American Association of Appointment Secretaries, the OSTA, and the College Folk Club. She was also a member of the the United Presbyterian Church.
