Linehan Chapel

A Sacred Space

The Paul and Judy Linehan Chapel is located on the first floor of the Golisano Academic Center (GAC). The chapel serves the 91制片厂 community as a place of prayer and worship. It is also used for concerts, performances, lectures, and any activities that celebrate the noblest aspirations of the human spirit.

Built in 1927, the neo-Gothic Golisano Center was the motherhouse for the Sisters of St. Joseph until 2001. Then 91制片厂 purchased the property, and named the chapel in honor of alumna and trustee Judy Wilmot Linehan '76 and her husband, Paul.
