V From Matriculation Day past graduation, the Chapel is the scene of many memorable events. Color Day, one of Chatham ' s oldest and most spirited traditions takes place in this building. What winning senior class hasn ' t felt the exul- tation of throwing its caps to the Chapel ceil- ing in victory?! Here, the freshmen begin their college days as recognized, voting members ol the community when they receive their colors. The Chapel continues to be the scene of fresh- men activities as it houses their class meetings. These meetings follow the Thursday religious service which provides an opportunity lor the faculty, administration and students to join in worship. On alternating Tuesdays, the Student Government Association meetings and Public Occasions programs hold the Chapel audience ' s attention. Important campus figures as well as those of nation wide acclaim have held the Chap- el podium. Other organizations and group meet- ings take place in the Chapel as well as special college functions such as: vespers, concerts, lec- tures and major theatrical presentations. The Chapel walls have echoed Sophocles, Shakespeare, and O ' Neill. The Chapel Lounge is continually in use for teas, receptions, discussions and other gatherings. This year, the students, administration and fac- ulty had the priviledge ol meeting Sir Roger Makins, the British ambassador, at a reception in the Lounge. Moving Up Day, one of the college ' s happiest and yet saddest traditions is held in the Chapel. The Seniors sing their med- ley, awards and scholarships are presented and then they march out to the wide, wide world as the underclassmen move up. For the last time, the Seniors echo the Alma Mater from the back of the Chapel. Returning once more, the graduating class gathers in Chapel for Bac- calaureate and their final presence in the Chapel as a group. The Chapel sets the scene for many a graduates happiest moment alter leaving col- lege for several Alumnae have returned to be married here.
