dc.description | View looking east from Ho Plaza; Sage Chapel is the non-denominational chapel and serves as the final resting place of Cornell University's founders, Ezra Cornell and Andrew Dickson White, and their wives. The building was a gift to the university of Henry William Sage and his wife. Others interred there include University president Edmund Ezra Day and his wife, former New York Governor Alonzo Cornell, philanthropist Jennie McGraw, her father John McGraw and her husband, Willard Fiske. In 1940 another expansion and renovation added more space for a new choir loft and the current pipe organ. The building includes Tiffany glass windows.
