Created by the OSC Microphone Club, this recording reviewed the 1952-53 academic year with the intent that it be sealed and then replayed twenty years later. The production included interview clips and snippets of musical performances, and was created from more than 200 hours of raw footage. Topics documented in the time capsule include: the election of Dwight Eisenhower as U.S. President; nickel hop dances; the third annual Institute of the Far East; production of the play "Harvey"; the 30th anniversary of KOAC radio; homecoming activities; the creation of International House at OSC; a recap of Oregon State's football win over Oregon; the Seahorses water pageant; a recap of the Beavers' basketball win versus Oregon; International Week; forensics competitions; and commencement.
Digitized from two open reel audiotapes held in the Mike Club Scrapbook and Sound Recordings (MSS Mike), Special Collections and Archives Research Center, Oregon State University Libraries.
