The chapel, on the corner of Washington and Franklin streets, was dedicated on November 15, 1925. The college also used the building for commencements and other assemblies. In 1936–37, Wheaton renamed it the Orlinda Childs Pierce Memorial Chapel. Neighboring McAlister Hall was home to the Conservatory of Music and housed conservatory faculty offices.

[[College Church]], across Washington Street from the college, is not formally associated with the college, although it has long been informally closely associated with the college.<ref name="Schnurr">Stephen J.
