Stebbins Hall

Stebbins Hall, Student cooperative residence near University of California, Berkeley, United States.

Stebbins Hall is a Berkeley Student Cooperative house at 2527 Ridge Road, on the Northside of the University of California, Berkeley campus. The three-storey former hotel has a basement kitchen, dining room, laundry, TV room and free pile, plus a lizard lounge, study room and Mystery Room by the entrance. Its L-shaped floors hold singles and doubles, most doubles sharing a private bathroom.

The building opened in 1927 as Hotel Slocum, on the lot of the Pierce family's turreted Victorian home, which was demolished that year. In 1936 the University Student Cooperative Association leased it and opened Stebbins Hall as a women's cooperative boarding house, helped by Mortar Board alumnae. The Berkeley Student Cooperative bought the property in 1950, and the house became coed in 1971.

The house is named after Lucy Ward Stebbins, Dean of Women from 1912, who raised women's enrollment from 1,200 to 6,400. She spoke at the Stebbins Institute held here in 1942. Residents keep traditions such as the fall and spring Special Dinner, the Room-to-Room open house, and the house's '80s parties.

Stebbins Hall is a private residence for cooperative members, not a site open to visitors, so there are no tours or visiting hours. It stands at 2527 Ridge Road on the Northside of the UC Berkeley campus, next to the 1909 Treehaven apartments the Pierce family built. The exterior, including the painted green handprints, can be seen from the street.

Author Beverly Cleary lived here during her Berkeley years in one of the upstairs rooms. Additionally, handprints from a 1967 student prank remain visible on the exterior walls.
