Description

A century ago, USC built its first dormitory for women, whose presence on campus had not been warmly welcomed when the first females arrived in the 1890s. While women's dorms have come and gone on campus, the Women's Quad retains its status as the original location for and the only present location of women's-only residence halls at the university.
