Stebbins Hall

[3] She was educated at the University of California, Berkeley and later transferred to Radcliffe College to receive her Bachelor of Arts degree.

She graduated from Radcliffe College in 1902, and worked in Massachusetts as a social worker until 1910 when she took the position as Assistant Dean of Women at the University of California, Berkeley.

In her position, the schools of Nursing and Social Welfare were established, as well as the departments of Decorative Arts and Home Economics.

[3] Upon conferring an honorary Doctorate of Laws degree to her in 1953, President Sproul described Stebbins as “A teacher and dean...who saw clearly into the hearts and minds of students, and stimulated them by precept and example to achieve their highest potential.

[4] Stebbins Hall is located at 2527 Ridge Road, the lot of the Pierce family's original Victorian home.

They built the Cloyne Court Hotel, a “high-class modern apartment house” in 1904, which they later transformed into their own residence.

[7] This was done with the help of the alumni of Mortar Board, the first national honor society for college senior women.

[citation needed] One night in 1967, a group from Cloyne then an all-male co-op, played a prank by painting footprints of a Green Giant through the campus and up to Stebbins, leaving two handprints on the front of the building.

The east half of the South wing of the building houses most of the single rooms, which have eastward facing windows.
