Administrative History

The International Student Organization (ISO) at Oklahoma State University was created in 1990 “to foster a spirit of friendliness and cooperation among all International Students on the campus; to promote social and cultural exchange between International Students and the Community; to provide an organized body by means of which International Students can cooperate in matters of common concerns and student welfare; to bring about closer relations among International Students, the Administration, Faculty, and the Student Body.” “The ISO is the umbrella organization that joins together the international students at OSU through exhibitions that are both indoor and outdoor, and activities that are sports-oriented, recreational and cultural in nature.” It is the second-largest organization on campus.

Since the ISO includes students from around the world, each country or region is represented by an Area Club, for example: African Student Organization, Nepalese Student Organization, Latin American Student Organization, etc.

The ISO is affiliated with the Office of International Students and Scholars http://union.okstate.edu/ISS/.
