The Alice Kathryn Kidder Outstanding Student Employee Award Fund was established to honor Alice Kathryn Kidder Evans. Kidder was an Oregon State College alumna who played on the women’s basketball team and graduated with a degree in Commerce in 1924. After graduating, she had various jobs, and Kidder and her husband settled in Ithaca, New York where they both worked for Ithaca Gun Works. She was a very active alumni member and served as a member of the OSU President’s Club and the Council of Regents until the 1990s.
The Kidder Award recognizes and rewards students who provide exemplary service to their unit and to library patrons.
Alice Kidder Evans also contributed photos along with her father, Andrew Kidder, of campus buildings and students to the Special Collections and Archives Research Center located in the Valley Library. The Alice Kidder Evans Photograph Collection shows campus life through photos taken from 1889 to 1919.
