      Susan Miller Dorsey Hall was built in 1930 and remained the youngest residence hall for thirty years thereafter. Financed almost entirely by women (Miss Scripps, Mrs. Margaret Fowler, Mrs Edward C. Harwood, Mrs Mark Kimberly Shirk, Mrs. Paul Jordan, Smith, Mrs. Charles Stinchfeld, Mrs. James Luckie and Mr. Jacob Chandler Harper), the hall is named for Mrs. Dorsey, who was the first woman superintendent of schools in Los Angeles and one of the first trustees selected.
