Vassar Chapel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Vassar College Chapel, built in 1904, is the main religious building at Vassar College, and is the largest religious ediface in Poughkeepsie, New York. Although it has been altered, repaired, and acoustically improved, it is one of the few buildings at Vassar that has not undergone considerable renovation. Each semester, the College community gathers in the Chapel for fall and spring convocations, in which the President and a notable member of the faculty deliver addresses.
