About McFarlin

McFarlin Seating

Opened in 1926 to fulfill the University's pressing need for a chapel that could accommodate the entire student body, the Auditorium has evolved over time and continues to serve the University in the manner envisioned by ÃÛÌÒ½´President Charles Selecman as "a place where we can have our friends from the community and elsewhere gather together on great occasions."

Recent projects include a completely new paint job and the addition on over 140 new house lights of the theater, the installation of a new sound system, renovation of the second floor lobby, now called the Mezzanine, and remodeling of the dressing rooms.
