Kruegel-McAllister Halls at Washington State University 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. Each floor elected a "Sponsor" who acted as greeters in the fall and was in charge of special events.
The records of the Kruegel-McAllister residence halls at Washington State University are predominantly minutes of house meetings. They also contain minutes of McAllister Sponsor meetings, a hall handbook, a copy of Paw Prints (the dormitory newsletter) and various rules and constitutions.
