History:
Originally built in 1967 as Lawless Hall in the Brisson Seminary complex, Chappuis Hall became a residence hall in 1993 with the purchase of the former Oblate seminary property. The hall is named for Mother Mary DeSales Chappuis (1793-1875), a nun of the Order of the Visitation of Holy Mary, who is credited with revitalizing the "Spiritual Directory of St. Francis De Sales." Chappuis is also credited with co-founding the Oblates of St. Francis De Sales along side Fr. Louis Brisson.
