WSO was founded in January of 1995 by [[Jon Zeppieri]], [[DeWitt Clinton]], and others.
Toph, Tom, Brent, Jacob, and Steve graduated in the spring of 2004, and around that time [[Ben Cohen]] and [[Dan Weintraub]] were given [[root]]. During the summer, Evan and Dan converted [[WSO Plans]] from its standalone PHP/MySQL incarnation over to PageKit, so that students could access it from off-campus without [[setting up a proxy server]]. Also, they converted the Postgres database and the website over to UTF-8/Unicode. With the help of [[Masha Lifshin]] and [[Sam Dreeben]], the duo made much-envied but never-imitated Quicktime VRs for their [[Facebook pictures]].
In the fall of 2004, [[Kai Steverson]] rewrote [[Factrak]] for [[College Council]] to allow people to "agree" with comments left about professors. Kai also wrote [[My Survey]] that semester. Evan re-wrote the [[WSO Facebook]] (again) to include faculty and more information fields.
In February 2005, WSO was hacked by a group of Brazilians calling themselves Simiens Crew 2005.
==Listservers==
WSO uses Mailman 2.1.5 to power its listservers. A complete list of WSO listservers is available from [http://wso.williams.edu/mailman/listinfo].
