Where is the chapel placed?

The chapel is placed by the east of the circle and south of the gardens. The main chapel faces the east and west directions to capture majority of the sun as it rises in the east and sets in the west. The reason for this loaction is because the circle is a main cirrculatory meeting point where all the paths of the campus tend to converge together. With that it would allow all the paths to be directed to the chapel. Another reason just north of the chapel is the beautiful gardens of farmingdale. Occupants from the chapel can walk to the gardens and enjoy a gorgeous view besides the chapel itself.
