This large grassy area — situated between the Forum, Bucksbaum Arts Center, Herrick Chapel, the Humanities and Social Studies Center, and Noyce Science Center — offers an ideal location for events throughout the year including
Commencement,
Summerfest, and the Grinnellian music festival that showcases student bands. During the warmer months of the year, Central Campus makes a perfect outdoor study space in addition to a good field for the Ultimate team.
