A promotional video for OSU Mini-College, a "four-day learning vacation" marketed to women interested in learning or updating their knowledge and skills in a variety of areas. Sponsored by the Oregon Association for Family and Community Education, and the Oregon State University Extension Service, the OSU Mini-College offered more than seventy courses as well as a banquet, plenary and evening activities.
