As part of the Kilpatrick Education Center, Peabody Auditorium was constructed in 1939 to be a part of Peabody Laboratory School, a K-12 school held on campus that provided education students an opportunity to student teach. The school was closed in 1970. Today Peabody is used for a variety of purposes, but primarily as a site to host lectures and events, as well as a place for students take standardized tests. Georgia College's
Early College program is located next door in the wing to the left that is adjacent to Peabody Auditorium.
