Oberlin College. Office of Career Development and Placement.
Between 1837 and 1905, placement assistance was offered informally to Oberlin College and Conservatory of Music graduates seeking careers in teaching or religious work. In 1905, the Bureau of Appointments was created for the purpose of appointing graduates to teaching positions. In 1962, the name of the office changed to the Office of Placement and Graduate Counseling. The new name reflected the office's emphasis on vocational guidance as part of the educative process. In 1974, following a Task Force review of the office, the name changed to the Office of Career Development and Placement.
