Watkins Halls Will House 75 New Dormitory Nears Finish South of First Gifts of Local Donor
Early completion of Miller hall, gift to the University from Mrs. J. B. Watkins, Lawrence, will make possible the awarding of nearly 40 scholarships to self-supporting women students, in addition to the 37 heretofore available for Watkins hall.
Watkins hall was given to the University 10 years ago, and Miller hall, named for the late Frank Miller of Kansas City, Mo., brother of Mrs. Watkins, is nearing completion.
These halls of residence are similar to sorority houses in general construction, but instead of general dining room and kitchen, each has a number of small kitchenette-dining room sections, in each of which groups of five or six students prepare and serve their own meals.
Mrs. S. M. Stayton of Wellington will be the housemother of Miller hall, when it opens in September. Mrs. C. E. Esterly has been housemother of Watkins hall for the past several years.
