Experience with Messiah? Chapel probation sounds intimidating

I’m a Messiah grad but from way back in the class of '97. But my son is a senior in high school this year and he visited last year so we have some recent knowledge. But hopefully other current Messiah students will chime in.
Chapel is offered 2-3 times/week - Tues & Thurs mornings and Tues evening in various styles and locations & types of chapel. A student needs 14 chapels per semester. Church attendance on Sunday is encouraged but not required. Again, a variety of churches are in the area.
Messiah is an evangelical Christian college but attracts students from many different denominations.
Campus is alcohol and tobacco free and there are open dorm hours for allowing visitation of members of the opposite sex.
I’d suggest a visit, as Messiah is a great school with friendly students.
