Delete arguments

 * subject has no independent notability from the larger organization with which it is associated
 * lacks multiple, independent, reliable sources
 * precedent: in the regional variation of english of this subject, the term College means residence hall. Such subjects have proven over time to be generally non-notable.
 * cited sources only verify existence and do not provide encyclopedic context

Keep arguments

 * subject is unique (first women's hall of residence anywhere in Oceania)
 * source provided for notability
 * source was contested as not independent of the subject, but a plausible rationale for independence was provided
 * precedent: many articles on this subject group, few have been AfD'd; most of those were kept; this suggests that sources are probably available. Article needs time to be expanded before this can be determined.
 * article asserts notability

Discounted keep arguments

 * WP:OSE
 * has an alumni society and had a rather large reunion

Summary
I was actually preparing this analysis as my usual extended closing remarks that I do for close-calls or other AfD's where I think there is a liklihood of a deletion review. But another administrator closed the debate before I was done. (This takes me an hour or more to do!) So I decided to put it up a anyway, for whomever is interested.
