304<div class="paragraph">The University of Oklahoma "O" Club was founded as the Letterman's Club. It was as much a social organization as it was an athletics club. Prior to this time, there weren't many opportunities for student-athletes to enjoy all the social aspects of college.<br /><br />To meet this need, the "O" Club was established and opened to all OU lettermen and their guests. They could get together and share the various experiences of student life beyond their particular sports. They sponsored dances and involved themselves in other campus activities in which other social groups participated. Funds were limited, particularly during the Great Depression, and the club's existence was pivotal to some student-athlete's enrichment.&#8203;<span style="color:rgb(155, 155, 155)"></span></div>

Robertson also worked to find funding sources for the club. His efforts eventually resulted in a dedicated space for student-athletes to study as well as a place they could host Thursday night dances.<br /><br />As the years progressed, Robertson found additional funding for an "O" Club tutorial program to complement the mandatory study halls he proctored. All of this was designed as a service support element for the athletics department.</div>
