Bruce Eugene Shirey College Commencement Announcement Bruce Eugene Shirey was in the last graduating class of Oklahoma A&M. On May 15, 1957, Oklahoma A&M changed its name for the final time to Oklahoma State University to reflect the broadening scope of curriculum offered. Oklahoma Governor Raymond Gary signed the bill authorizing the name change passed by the 26th Oklahoma Legislature on May 15, 1957. However, the bill only authorized the Board of Regents to change the name of the college, a measure they voted on at their meeting on June 6, 1957. The official name - Oklahoma State University of Agricultural and Applied Sciences - took effect July 1, 1957.
