      Mary Kimberly Hall opened to student in 1960 and is the fifth residence hall built on campus. Conceived by Claremont architectural firm Criley and McDowell, the hall is funded in part by gifts from friends and the trustees of Harvey Mudd College, whose women students were housed in Kimberly from the 60s through the 80s. The hall honors Mary Kimberly Shirk of Redlands, a longtime trustee (1926-1966) and interim president of Scripps College from 1942-44.

      In summer of 2000, the connecting Wilbur Dining Hall was renovated to house 25 additional students.
