Through 19 years Strand heads Oregon State On October 15,1942—a big day for you, President Strand and a big day for the students—you began your nineteen years of service to Oregon State during which you have inspired many advancements, some of which you see on these pages. You have seen our campus grow, not only the student enrollment and number of buildings, but also the scope and quality of the curriculum. Early in your administration the School of Business and Technology was added, later the physical education department in the School of Education; a natural resources department and an oceanography department in the School of Science. The later addition is the School of Humanities and Social Sciences. Over fifteen buildings have been added to the campus since you became president. Enrollment has increased by almost 4,000 students. Sixty percent of Oregon State's 34,855 graduates have received their diplomas during this time. Your constant effort to bring higher education to more people has brought quality as well as quantity to Oregon State. We have developed one of the nation’s leading research programs with the establishment of research institutes in science, forest experimentation, transportation and water resources, and the expansion of research in agriculture, engineering and home economics.
