Aurelia Reinhardt Alumnae Memorial House

Aurelia Reinhardt Alumnae Memorial House is a building on the campus of Mills College in Oakland, California. It was designed by architect Clarence W. Mayhew, and named after college president Aurelia Henry Reinhardt.[1][2][3][4] It was completed in 1949. Mayhew's design gave it "gabled roofs, wide eaves, and easy access to gardens" considered "fundamentally Californian design".[5]
