Historical NoteReturn to Top

Kruegel-McAllister Halls were considered separate residence halls when built to house male students in 1957. Kruegel was named for William C. Kruegel, former bursar and graduate manager of athletics at Washington State University. McAllister Hall was named for the Very Reverend Charles E. McAllister, a member of the Board of Regents from 1942-1952. In the fall of 1964, women were first housed in the buildings and it began to be considered one residence hall.
