Chadbourne Hall was built in 1870 as the Normal School, then known as the Female College. After the adoption of coeducation in 1874, the building became the women's dormitory known as Ladies Hall. In 1901, the building was renamed in honor of the first University of Wisconsin President, Paul Chadbourne (1867–1870). The building was demolished in 1957.
