Rogers State University-Claremore
From Wikipedia, The Free EncyclopediaRogers State University is a public, co-educational university located in Claremore, Oklahoma with branch campuses in Bartlesville, Oklahoma and Pryor Creek, Oklahoma. Since it began offering bachelor's degrees in 2000, it has outpaced the growth of all other public universities in Oklahoma. It currently has a total enrollment of over 4,000 students in programs at its three campuses and in its distance learning programs. Of those, 2,491 were enrolled in its main campus at Claremore in Fall 2007.
History
The institution that is now RSU has gone through several stages in its existence, from its foundation as a state sponsored preparatory school, to its transition to a military academy, and finally, to its current incarnation as a four year university.
It has its roots in the Eastern University Preparatory School, which was founded in 1909. During the construction of the famous "Preparatory Hall", Eastern University Preparatory School held its classes in the old Claremont building until 1911. The institution was closed in 1917.
In 1919 it was restarted as the Oklahoma Military Academy (OMA), to meet the growing educational and training needs of the United States Armed Forces, and from 1923 to 1971 it offered secondary and collegiate education. Thousands graduated from OMA, and over 100 alumni gave their lives serving their country during World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War.
In 1971, the Oklahoma Legislature replaced the OMA with an institution to grant two year associate degrees to the public known as Claremore Junior College. In 1982, it became Rogers State College, named after the county the main campus is located in, Rogers County, Oklahoma. Rogers County is in turn named in honor of Clement Vann Rogers, not Clem's son, Will Rogers. In 1996, Rogers State College and the University Center at Tulsa (UCAT) merged to form Rogers University, with campuses in Claremore and Tulsa, which operated for two years before being separated by the Oklahoma Legislature. The part that had been Rogers State College became a member of the OU Board of Regents, and was renamed Rogers State University. RSU was given permission to seek accreditation as a four year, bachelor degree granting university. In 2000, RSU became the institution it is today, a public four year, residential university. On August 16, 2006, Rogers State's Stratton Taylor Library was named a Federal depository library, the 20th in the state of Oklahoma.
