The University of Saskatchewan Flying Club was organized to "promote in the University an interest in aviation, and fellowship among members." Membership was open to "all individuals, pilots, students, and non-pilots with a genuine interest in furthering the objectives of the Club."

On 31 October 1960, the University of Saskatchewan Graduate Student Society wrote the Canadian Film Institute, seeking advice on establishing a film society. Their initiative was successful, and in February 1963, the Graduate Student Society changed its name to the "University of Saskatchewan Film Society." Membership was open; several members of faculty eventually served on the executive. During the 1960s and 1970s film series shown by the Society were well-attended, but by the mid-1980s membership had declined to the point that the Society no longer appeared feasible.

Talk of starting a Faculty Club at the University of Saskatchewan started in 1921, but a club was not established until 1927. The centre for the club was a reading room in the administration building; and the club's major purpose became sponsoring a series of lectures by faculty members. Until 1947 it was for males only with the exception of one open meeting per year. Slowly, over the years, the club was also opened to other than faculty members: in 1937, government researchers were allowed to join; as were 'senior administrative personnel' in 1959; and by 1962, a degree was no longer a requirement of membership. In 1962, the club moved into the dean of Agriculture's house (its current location). On 19 May 1962, it was decided not to sponsor any more papers. From that point onward the club began to concentrate on providing food and drink. By 1974, 'most administrative officers' were permitted to join. The faculty club became a restaurant and bar on campus that secretaries, janitors, and students could not join. [Hayden, p.219-220].

The earliest Agricultural Societies were established in 1884, reached their peak in 1927, and were in steady decline by the mid 1950s. In 1921 the Saskatchewan Agricultural Societies Association was formed "to promote the interests of agriculture generally, and the agricultural societies specifically...For this purpose the Association shall co-operate with the Department of Agriculture and the Director of the Extension Work at the University." In addition to stimulating and helping agricultural societies, the Extension Department was responsible for the administration and interpretation of the Agricultural Societies Act, and provide the societies with advice, supervision, and the administration of grants. With the reorganization of extension activities in 1963, a number of the Department's traditional roles were dropped and emphasis was placed on regional courses and training extension workers and local leaders. Local societies were then encouraged to take increased responsibilities for community programs.

In 1910 the Saskatchewan Department of Agriculture turned over to the University the responsibility for the development and delivery of agricultural and women's extension programs throughout the Province. To fulfill this mandate, the Department of Agricultural Extension (1910) and Women's Work (1913) were established within the College of Agriculture. Initially the activities of Agricultural Extension focussed on services to the Agricultural Societies--short courses, institutes (meetings and conferences), plowing matches, field crop contests, stock judging, etc. During the war years, a Better Farming Train toured the province providing lectures and demonstrations and presenting exhibits on matters pertaining to agriculture. In 1915 "educational holidays" or camps were initiated for farm boys and girls and in 1918 4-H clubs were formed throughout Saskatchewan. Farm and Home Week, a period of exhibits, lectures, and demonstrations at the University, was introduced in the early 1930s. Special projects and programmes for rural women were offered through Homemaker's Clubs established in 1911. In addition to basic domestic activities, women received advice and instruction in fruit growing, tree planting, home nursing, water supply and purity, libraries, health and welfare services, etc. Adult Education services, begun in 1938 in response to forces for social reconstruction, consisted in part of groups formed to discuss planning, economics, cooperatives, government institutions and policies, international affairs, trade unions, etc. This was a logical expansion of the variety of information (bulletins, leaflets), informal (lectures, demonstrations), public (testing, analyses), professional (training), and cultural (drama, music) services, as well as a variety of services to governments at all levels. In 1949 the work of Agricultural Extension and Women's Work were combined in the Department of Extension. It remained a department in the College of Agriculture until 1963 when administrative responsibility was transferred to the Office of the President and renamed the Extension Division. The name changed again in 1979 to Division of Extension and Community Relations. It was changed back to Extension Division in 1990. The following individuals have served as Director or Dean: [of Agricultural Extension, or the Division]: F.H. Auld (1910-1912); S.E. Greenway (1912-1919); J.G. Rayner (1919-1952); R.D. Ramsay (1952-1963); H.R. Baker (1963-1974); W.B. Whale (1974-1984); R.E. Brack (1984-1991); D.G. Thompson (1992-- ). [of Women's Work]: A. DeLury (1913-1930); B.G. Oxner (1930-1950); A. Stevens (1950-1953); M.H. Pattilo (1953- ).

4-H clubs had two predecessors--agricultural clubs, more commonly known as the Boy's and Girl's Clubs, which were supervised by the Agricultural Extension Department, and the girl's clubs or Homecraft Clubs. In 1952, both types became 4-H Clubs, but they continued to be administered and operated separately. The Saskatchewan 4-H Council was formed in 1957 for the purpose of encouraging club work, act as a clearing house, coordinate efforts and advise on policies and program direction. In 1963 all 4-H work was placed under a single supervisor, H.R. Clark. By 1970 the role of the Extension division had changed considerably. Direct contact with clubs was maintained through monthly mailing of the 4-H "Leader's Bulletin" and the 4-H quarterly, "Focus". The Division was still involved in preparing program material, conducting the provincial selections, and operating programs at Camp Rayner, the Division was no longer involved in club events, the appointment of judges, or the club efficiency competitions. In 1985, 4-H became autonomous and moved their offices from the Extension Division. The following supervised the program: H.R. Clark (1963-1969); G. Hass (1969-1979); P. Katz (1979-1985).

The Division of Audio Visual Services came into existence in 1966 following a Council resolution of April 1965. The objective was to develop a centralized audio visual service to support teaching, research and extension. With the growing use of audio visual technology in education the Division has expanded both in size and the diversity of services offered. The Division provided a film and videotape library, equipment services, photographic services, multi-media and sound recording, and a wide array of television services. Starting in the 1980s, the Division was been heavily involved in the use of satellite communication for distance education. The Division was subsequently renamed the Division of Media and Technology, and later Educational Media Access and Production, reflecting an expanding role with new technologies. Following a reorganization ca. 2015, Media Production became part of the Vice-Provost Teaching and Learning portfolio, with some other functions assumed by Information Communications and Technology. The following have served as director of the Division (revised 1994): P.R. Greenough (1967-1972); G.A. Farkas - acting - (1972-1974); G.A. Farkas (1974-1985); D. Fortosky (1985- ).

The Division of Life Sciences was established in 1972 with the objective of drawing together life scientists from across the campus into a body which could effectively and efficiently coordinate training in the basic life sciences. It served as a forum for faculty dialogue between colleges, allowed for campus wide "vetting" of courses proposed by colleges and departments, and allowed comment on the hiring of faculty who might have interdepartmental teaching responsibilities. The division did not grant degrees. Students were to register in one college and could choose classes offered elsewhere on campus. The Division was disbanded in 1983 as a result of a referendum of the general membership. The following served as division head: W.G.E. Caldwell (1972-1973); J.D. Wood (1973-1975); J.M. Naylor (1975-1978); B.D. McLennan (1978-1979); J.M. Naylor (1979-1981); P.H.G. Stockdale (1981-1983).
