This is 4H House, which is a cooperative living facility at the University of Illinois that offers a sisterhood type experience for women from a 4H background. To my knowledge, it’s the only residential 4H facility of its kind.
It began as a way to offer lower cost living alternatives to women who came to college from farming communities who didn’t have a lot of money for housing but weren’t in a position to commute. It has evolved into something quite lovely, and reading about the alumnae, it seems that the women developed lifelong friendships (and some amazing careers. Interestingly, every recent alumnae profiled had a job lined up at graduation, so perhaps industry connections as well?)
