Oklahoma State System of Higher EducationChancellor Glen D. Johnson

Territorial University at Norman

The first Oklahoma territorial legislature passed legislation creating three institutions of higher education in 1890 in order to fulfill a requirement of the Organic Act of Congress establishing the territory.

Congress required the Oklahoma territory to establish a liberal arts and professional education, agriculture and mechanical arts education and teacher training.Higher Education Prior to 1941

During the 1920s there were fifty-three different presidents presiding over eighteen public institutions, an average of one new president every three years. In the 1930s fifty more presidents rotated through the system.

These changes not only affected personnel, but accreditation as well.

In 1931, eleven Oklahoma colleges and universities were accredited by the north Central Association of Colleges and Schools, but in 1936 only 3 institutions were still accredited.

Higher Education Prior to 1941

The first published study of the problem of coordination of higher education in Oklahoma was the doctoral dissertation of Dr. Henry G. Bennett in 1926.

He recommended that a central coordinating board be established and a state system formed.Higher Education Prior to 1941Dr. Henry G. BennettPresident, Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechanical College, 1928-1951
