Apparently the college decided otherwise. If it is THE chapel for that college, then the decision makes sense to me.

The military does the same thing on small bases. If there is just one chapel, no symbols of a particular religion are in the chapel, except when there is a religious function in the chapel. If the Protestants are there, a plain cross is on the wall. If the Catholics are there, a crucifix is on the wall. If a Jewish service is being held, appropriate symbols for that service are brought out. And so on. It is how a single building can be a chapel for all persons on the base.

Looks to me like a similar thing is going here.

But is that appropriate in an almost-300-year-old HISTORIC property? Do you think the College would even begin thinking about doing this if this were a historic Synagogue? It is a historic Chapel.

This kind of policy reeks of revisionism to me. I wouldn't have complained a whit if the College opened a new multi-faith chapel, but to try to remove Christian symbols from a historically-Christian room is disturbing.
