The 1883 McCormick Hall building takes its name from the school's primary funder from 1859 through the mid-twentieth century, Cyrus McCormick, Sr. and his family.
The Halsted Street entrances of (l-r) McCormick Hall, built in 1883; Ewing Hall, built in 1863; and the seminary chapel, built in 1875, face a tree-lined street.
Norman Clifford Shirey of Missouri, an 1893 graduate of Hanover College, sits for a portrait. Norman was the older brother of William Bertram Shirey and Warren Eugene Shirey, who are also students at McCormick Theological Seminary.
