Not clear why these two women are supposed to be notable. The sources arenot independent (university sources) or not reliable (localwiki.org?), and I couldn't easily find better sources either. Reading the article also doesn't make me any wiser: the houses make the architect notable, not the owners; their university career and publications were not really reamrkable either. They had some impact on their university, but as long as that impact is not recognised and significantly reported in reliable, independent sources, we shouldn't have an article on them.

Comment. They may be notable individually or not, but their bios should not be combined. If this is kept, it should be split. As for notability, I don't have time to look for more sources but [1]: "Jean Hodgkins and Vera Skubic both played major roles in the development of women’s athletics and ability to participate in recreational activities on American campuses during the 1970s. Prior to their arrival, the words “female” and “athlete” were not mentioned in the same sentence." this suggests they are likely notable. Ping me if better sources are found.--_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:22, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Second this comment that this should be split if kept. Though they did maintain ties, a joint article is a bit much... Note that both possibly have grounds for notability under WP:PROF - their work is cited. e.g. - [2] [3] [4] [5].Icewhiz (talk) 10:29, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
