ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY

The Washington State University Cooperative Extension Service was founded in 1913. Originally known as the Agricultural Extension Service, it took the current name to reflect the cooperative nature of this service, which is funded by federal state and local agencies. The state level organization of the service is operated by WSU in its capacity as the land-grant college for the state of Washington.

Other Cooperative Extension records are found in University Archives record group 189.
