They were built on the site of Chatham's first building, Berry Hall. Probably the first thing you'll notice about a Chatham classroom is the small, intimate size. Starting from the first year, most classes follow a discussion-based format. Most faculty offices are located in Falk.
Professors are accessible during office hours and by special appointment.
The overall academic experience is also enhanced by the fact that Chatham is a women's college at the undergraduate level. Not only is the environment supportive, relaxed and friendly, but there are proven academic and professional benefits to attending a women's college. As a first-year entering Chatham, you'll attend First Year Writing Seminar. The seminar focuses on developing and enhancing writing and communication skills. All new students do community service as part of their class requirement, writing about and discussing their experience in class.
