Middlebury, VT

Latitude = 43deg 30min N Longitude = 73deg 20min W

It may seem counter-intuitive that you should pray in a northeast direction (Makkah is southeast on the map!!).
Interestingly, the shortest distance between Makkah and Middlebury is 6277 miles,
going northwest from Middlebury, passing through Paris, France, central Italy
and eventually and entering Makkah from the northwest.

If you stand facing the front door of Mead Chapel and turn right, you are facing north. That is, Coffrin is at the north end of campus and Stewart/McCullough Hall are at the south end. If you need more help, contact the Islamic Society for a compass.
