The Board of Regents in fall 1918 directed President Harry Burns Hutchins to sign a contract with the government providing for the training of 3,000 Student Army Training Corps students. More than 2,700 students enrolled for training. But after the signing of the Armistice on Nov. 11, 1918, the regents on Nov. 21 voted to discontinue the student corps.
