Osborne Hall / Osborn Hall
Osborne Hall [1], a "dormitory and home for girl students", was dedicated on Tuesday, October 26, 1909. [2] Located at 907 Wright St. in Champaign, [3] the building served primarily as a "rooming house for Episcopalian women students" and was very prominent in the student religious scene of the early 1900's. [4] It was home to up to 30 women, the matron of the house, and the deaconess of the parish. [5] The Hall's 4PM dedication ceremony was followed by an 8-10PM open house. [6]
Today the building serves as the home of the Chi Omega sorority.
