Wheaton College
During the free concerts sponsored by the Great Woods held on the Wheaton College campus this summer, children have enjoyed playing up and down the dimple. This depression began as a cellar hole for a barn. It was sloped into its present form when Emerson dining hall was built in 1908. Originally it was going to be a reflecting pool, a formal garden or a Greek ampitheatre. None of these plans materialized. But it does provide a natural ampitheatre for frolicking children during warm summer evening concerts.
