Walker Hall. Courtesy of Oklahoma City University Archives & Special Collections. Walker Hall! There it was! The freshman women's dormitory looked a bit foreboding due to the cool and cloudy September day. Rose Seiler and her mom and dad--laden with piles of bedding--walked into the building and quickly looked for an elevator. They were in luck as they saw the elevator doors open. Soon they were headed to the third floor, room 305 near the end of the hall. Rose was beginning her college career at Oklahoma City University this very week! Nerves, excitement, and anticipation filled Rose as she walked into her dorm room. It was so small! How would she ever get all her belongings into these tiny spaces and also leave room for her roommate whom had yet to arrive.

The authors gratefully acknowledge the authors of The Kappa Phi Club History and Candle Beams for their inspiration. TABLE OF CONTENTS FRESHMAN! LOOKING FOR MORE KAPPA PHI OFF TO COUNCIL Note: Uncredited photos are from Candle Beams. FRESHMAN! It was a glorious September Saturday in 1918 with just a hint of the cool weather yet to come. Miss Rose Kimberly walked tentatively up the steps and into the cool hallway of the Freshman Girls’ Dormitory at Kansas University. She arrived with only her secondhand trunk and an overnight bag. Where will I live this year? Excitement and anxiety filled her heart and she said a little prayer as she waited to see the dean of women for her room assignment. How could she find her way around at this great university? Would her roommate like her? Her dream of becoming a nurse had brought her here. She had been excited at the prospect, but now her mind was filled with questions: Will I fit in? Will I find friends? How can I stay connected to my church? What if I get homesick? Will I be able to make it? Little did Rose know that a new campus organization was ready to help her with just these questions while she was at college! Rose soon settled into her assigned room and hung her family’s picture on the wall to remind her of home.
