Chalmers Hall
Originally part of the Methodist Church property purchased
by the College in 1950, this was a Sunday school building
named by the church for James Chalmers who was not only
a strong Methodist leader, but also treasurer of the Roanoke
College Board of Trustees from 1882 to 1899. The main level
was extensively renovated in the summer of 1998, and the
ground level in the summer of 2001 to provide additional
living spaces for upper-class residents. The ground floor
of Chalmers is the designated Multicultural theme area. |
