Oregon Student Association
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Oregon Student Association (OSA), a non-profit organization, was established in 1975 to represent, serve and protect the collective interests of students in post-secondary education in Oregon.
OSA has focused on issues such as tuition, financial aid, and student rights. The organization spends as much of its time and energy educating students and members of campuses and the greater community about issues relevant to post-secondary education. OSA also provides a collective voice for students in state government, the Oregon University System, and other state boards and commissions.
