Here is the Corbett House, the South Campus Chapel, the Chapel Annex and the South Campus Conference Center. The Chapel is used for college special events. The Conference Center offers three adjacent conference spaces, two with smart classroom technology. Coffee and snacks are available for students and faculty from the Bon Appetit "Food for Thought" café located in the "commons" area of the Conference Center.
The construction of the Corbett House began in 1927 and was completed in 1929. However, because of the stock market crash that year, the attic ballroom and the intended swimming pool were never completed. The 21,660-square-foot house is a combination of two architectural styles: the placement of the windows, roof and other details characterize it as a French chateau, however because brick was used so extensively, it qualifies as a simplified Georgian design. The weathered brick for the exterior was obtained from the old 1890's Blitz-Weinhard brewery.
