Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature
Who are we?
The OSU-OIL chapter of the Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature is proud to be part of the state's longest-standing student organization. Founded by former Lieutenant Governor George Nigh, OIL provides a one-of-a-kind mock government experience through an immersive legislative process, moot court competition, and an active press corps.
Students of all majors, backgrounds, and political perspectives are welcome and encouraged to participate. Throughout the program, delegates step into the roles of government professionals during a five-day conference held at the State Capitol, competing both individually and as part of a university delegation against peers from institutions across Oklahoma.
What are we raising funds for?
The delegation will travel to Oklahoma City for the annual “Session” of the Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature. This year, the OSU delegation is proud to send 50 competing members, the largest delegation in attendance, and is seeking funding assistance to help offset transportation, lodging, registration, and Capitol facility rental expenses. The session provides students with a unique opportunity to observe and engage in political operations in a professional setting while gaining firsthand insight into the legislative and judicial process. Beyond competition, the experience fosters meaningful collaboration and relationship-building among peers from across the state—connections that often extend into future professional networks and careers.
Thank you for your time and consideration!
