Historical Note
Dr. Robert W. Chick, an administrator who had significant student
affairs experience at the University of Missouri, University of Denver, and
Washington State University, founded the CSSA program in 1966. As the first
Dean of Students and later the Vice President for Student Affairs at Oregon
State University, Dr. Chick built an outstanding program of coordinated student
services within the OSU community.
Dr. Chick provided leadership in bringing together student affairs
professionals throughout Oregon and the Northwest to share ideas and discuss
relevant issues in the field. From this, he recognized the need for a
professional training and degree program in the region. In 1966, the State
Board of Higher Education in Oregon approved the offering of Ed.D., Ph.D.,
Ed.M., and the M.S. degrees through the CSSA graduate programs at Oregon State
University. Dr. Chick's mentorship of CSSA graduate students and of Oregon
State University student affairs professionals has left a lasting legacy.
The College Student Service Administration program’s primary mission has
been to prepare individuals for professional administrative positions in
student services departments at two- and four-year colleges and universities.
The curriculum has emphasized administrative leadership and management of
programs and services.
Graduates of the CSSA program hold professional positions in nearly
every state and in several other countries. Alumni hold numerous middle and
upper management positions at colleges and universities including serving as
Coordinators, Directors, Assistant and Associate Deans, Deans, Vice Presidents,
and Presidents. Alumni have also held numerous leadership positions in
professional associations as well as serving on numerous advisory boards,
editorial boards, and national/regional committees.
Known as the College Student Personnel Administration (CSPA) until the
early 1970s the program title was changed to College Student Services
Administration (CSSA). Those who had custody of the records at some time
include: College of Education, School of Education, Office of Student Services,
Office of Student Affairs, Office of Dean of Students. In 2003 the CSSA program
was formally moved to the College of Education.
The CSSA program has been under the direction of the following: Arthur
L. Tollefson (1966-1972); Jo Anne J. Trow (1972-1983); J. Roger Penn
(1983-2002); Thomas Scheuermann, (2002-2003); and Richard H. Shintaku,
(2003-present).
