Willard Hall at Oklahoma State University is a historic building that has undergone significant renovations to become a state-of-the-art educational center for the College of Education and Human Sciences. Located on the Stillwater campus, Willard Hall provides various rooms and spaces for university classes, academic departments, staff, faculty, and student organizations. The building has modern facilities and is primarily used for accommodating university classes, lectures, receptions, and special meetings. Willard Hall holds a special place in the university's history, having been saved and transformed through a $9.8 million renovation funded by the 1992 higher education bond issue. It is named after Frances E. Willard (Sept. 28, 1839-Feb. 17, 1898), a prominent feminist and temperance leader. The building was originally constructed in the 1930s through the government's Works Progress Administration and was first used as a women's dormitory.
