An excerpt from a 1952 News Boreau article from Stephens College states:
“Susie Stephens is a name - - a name representative of all students at Stephens College in Missouri - - a name adopted by the fashion design students for their own original designs. Susie Stephens is more than a name - - it is a symbol of an American way of life - the college way of life - the learning about life by doing, the doing which gives life meaning and purpose, the accomplishments which are milestones toward the future.”

“ The name comes from “Susan,” referring to Susan L. Stephens, the daughter of the college’s founder, James L. Stephens. In the 19th century, the school was informally associated with her name, and students began being affectionately referred to as “Susies.”
