By 2010, the Our Lady
Queen of Peace Chapel on
the campus of St. Edward’s
University was scheduled to
be replaced with a new cha-
pel. But as of 2009, the cha-
pel still stands and there are
no signs of new construction
ously, in today's environment
that has proven difficult.”
At the moment, the univer-
sity has only raised $1.6 mil-
lion to go toward the chapel.
However, schematics are in
progress and are being drawn
up by Rick Joy, the architect
in charge of the project.
The new chapel would
not only serve as a place of
worship but also as the new
home to Campus Ministry
and the Holy Cross Institute.
Both are currently located in
the Mang house and in vari-
ous offices around campus.
Currently, the plan is to
build a new 11,000 square
foot building, with a price tag
between $8 and $10 million.
But these costs estimates are
over two years old.
The money for construction
would not come from stu-
dent tuition but from various
fundraising, said Cartwright.
The site for the new proj-
ect is not the same site that
the chapel currently occupies
near Trustee Hall. The new

campaign for the project re-
quires a lead gift of $3 mil-
lion.
“Should we receive such a
lead gift, a time line would
then be set to achieve the bal-
ance of the funds," said Rhon-
da Cartwright, vice president
of Financial Affairs. “Obvi-

Money is not the only thing
hindering the new chapel’s
progress though. Several stu-
dents have expressed some
concern about the plan for
several reasons. Some stu-
dents said the old chapel has
been a place of worship and
significant events for so long
that to relocate to a new cha-
pel seems wrong.
“It would be ending a tra-
dition here on campus and
