Not to be confused with the automated [[Lasell Gym Bells]] which ring on the hour and at fifteen-minute intervals, to the annoyance of Morgan residents and a cappella groups trying to record in the chapel, the [[Thompson Chapel]] bell tower houses a chime (technically a few bells short of a carillon) which is rung three times daily (12:50, 4:00, 7:00) and on special occasions ([[Mountain Day]], etc.) by the student [http://www.williams.edu/Chaplain/guild.php Guild of Carilloneurs].
The ten bells are tuned in an Eb Major scale with an additional ninth and a flat sixthseventh, to wit:
Eb | F | G | Ab | Bb | C | Db | D | Eb | F
