Ann Tweedale
Cooperative
Who are we?
Established in 1937, Ann Tweedale Cooperative is the largest women’s cooperative house at Purdue University with a 40 girl capacity. Each year cooperative rush is held at the beginning of the spring semester and we welcome anywhere from 10-20 new members to join our big, happy family. Ann Tweedale is more than just a nice place to live on campus, it is the place we get to come home to each evening after classes to a home cooked meal and relax with our sisters. It is our home away from home. Of course, the only reason any of us are here at Purdue is first and foremost for our education. By combining a focus on school and focus on forming a sisterhood bond, women cooperative housing creates a positive place where women learn new life skills and have the best college experience Purdue has to offer.
