It has been in use throughout the history of Wofford College for religious services as well as for lectures and programs of all sorts. Even though Mickel Chapel on the first first floor was constructed in 1960-61 for small prayer services and for private meditation, Leonard Auditorium has remained officially The College Chapel, and so it remains to this day. It is therefore perfectly fitting and appropriate that it be adorned with a fine pipe organ. Portraits of the College's eight past Presidents, arranged in chronological order from right to left, hang on the walls. A particularly significant and valuable portrait is Albert Capers Guerry's painting of Dr. James H. Carlisle with a landscape of the campus in the background.
