This truly impressive structure was dedicated in 1958. Goodrich Chapel seats more than 1,400 and houses the College Music department. For years the campus bookstore was housed on the parking-lot level of the building. Many students and alumni have wished to climb the "off-limits" bell tower for a view of the campus.
