An anonymous group of
Methodist donors gave the funds to build and furnish the
first women's dorm during the school year of 1925-26. They
also requested that the building be named Susannah Wesley
Hall. With the addition of East and West Halls between
1954-6, almost every freshman (male and female) for the
last generation has lived in this complex.
