It's been closed since spring of last year.

On June 4, 2021, the Board of Trustees voted 22-6 to retain the name of Washington and Lee University, but to rename "Lee Chapel" to "University Chapel."

The trustees also declared that "interior changes" would be made to restore the chapel's "unadorned design and [to] physically separate the auditorium from the Lee family crypt and Lee memorial sculpture."
