About

The Chapman-Halsell-Dicke Complex will be a defining presence for Trinity off Hildebrand Avenue and a more visible connection to the San Antonio community. The Complex boasts newly reimagined, student-centered spaces in the Halsell and Chapman Centers along with Trinity’s newest building, Dicke Hall, which will serve as a front door for the Humanities.

The new Complex will not only foster student success and address aging infrastructure, but will also support contemporary, hands-on teaching, research, and learning. Additionally, it will support the admissions process when prospective students and parents visit Trinity’s campus.
