Historical Note
Headed by the Director of Student Activities, the University of Chicago's Office of Student Activities supported student organizations and events. Groups of students wishing to meet or hold events on campus were required to register with the office for recognition as a student organization; the office monitored their activities and financial status to ensure that registered groups remained in good standing. In turn, the Office of Student Activities served as advisors and advocates for student organizations, coordinated space and facilities for events and meetings, and helped student groups maintain financial stability. The Office of Student Activities also managed programming such as the "Summer on the Quads" series.
From the 1960s to the early 1970s, student groups proliferated at the University of Chicago. Student organizations formed around issues such as racial equality and civil rights, feminism and gender, and the Vietnam War. Students protested the termination of Professor Marlene Dixon, and university policies such as academic ranking of draft-eligible students. Student-run cultural events brought significant academics and entertainers to campus. By providing advisory and material support to student groups, the Office of Student Activities played a role in making all of this activity possible.
In 1996, the Office of Student Activities merged with the Office of the Reynolds Club, becoming the Office of Reynolds Club and Student Activities (ORCSA).
Scope Note
This collection consists of the administrative records of the Office of Student Activities from 1921 to 1981, with a concentration of material in the 1960s and 1970s. As such, this collection documents student activities and campus groups in the mid- and late-twentieth century, as well as the administrative activities of the office.
Series I, General Files is an alphabetical subject file, containing mainly routine administrative material. This series documents the variety of campus events and student groups at the university, as well as the challenges the office faced in providing space, facilities, and funding. This series includes financial reports of several campus fraternities, samples of student publications, and files on campus events such as the Marlene Dixon sit-in.
Series II, Student Organizations, collects material related to individual student organizations. Most of these groups filed with the Office of Student Activities for official recognition as a student organization; this routine paperwork is found alongside broadsides, publications, event programs and other material produced by student groups. This material represents both the number and variety of student organizations on the university campus in the twentieth century - Groups formed around academic interests, politics and social action, gender, ethnicity, race and religion. Others organized around popular college activities such as athletics, music, theater and drinking, as well as some rather more obscure avocations (The Jack the Ripper Society was dedicated to tearing down fliers that had been thoughtlessly nailed to trees; the Sheena Fan Club sought to "further the high ideals of womanhood in conflict with an ever-changing environment" through collective appreciation of the 1950s television show Sheena, Queen of the Jungle). University of Chicago branches of national groups are represented (Congress of Racial Equality, National Student Association), as are definitively local groups (The Society for the Protection and Perpetuation of Gargoyles).
Series III, Programming, collects calendars, broadsides and other material promoting seasonal programming of the Office of Student Activities. Correspondence and administrative material relating to planning seasonal programs is also found in this series. This series is arranged by seasons corresponding roughly to the quarterly academic calendar.
Series IV, Correspondence of the Director of Student Activities, consists primarily of outgoing memoranda and letters spanning the years 1971-1975. During this period, the position of Director was held by Dan B. "Skip" Landt; Marie Hauville served as Acting Director beginning in 1975. The Director's correspondence with students, administrators, faculty, and outside parties are filed chronologically.
Series V, Oversize Material, contains broadsides and other large items transferred from Series I-III. This series is divided into three subseries, corresponding to the original series from which material was transferred.
