And something else I never knew (for those of you familiar with Berkeley's campus):
The College Women's Club, a group of Pan-Hellenic women, constructed the Bancroft Hotel building in 1928 as a private clubhouse. Inspired by California's Mediterranean climate and vast landscape, noted Bay Area architect Walter T. Steilberg, an associate of Julia Morgan, created a distinguished example of the area's internationally known Arts and Crafts movement. After hosting the Phi MU Sorority (1960-1990) the building was closed for refurbishing and retrofitting. Four years later the Bancroft Hotel was opened. The Hotel is a National Register Landmark.
