Theta Sigma Phi is a national professional society for women in journalism and communications.

The building was constructed in 1941 to accommodate KOAC's increase in power from 1000 to 5000 watts. It was designed by OSC faculty members H. R. Sinnard and Grant Feikert. It is located on OSU's Hyslop research farm on U.S. Highway 20 between Corvallis and Albany.
The building was designed by architect Charles H. Burggraf and was completed in 1907. In addition to serving as a women's dormitory, it also included living quarters for single female faculty members and housed the domestic science department.
