Map 22

The lawn in front
of Old Dorm Block and Eliot Hall includes a beautiful mixture of trees.
It can be tricky to follow the map in this area, but the red horsechestnut
and the cluster of sugar maples are easy landmarks to find.
This map includes
one of only two American sycamores on the Reed campus. The American sycamore
is one of the parents of the hybrid London plane tree, which can be found
nearby on map 15.
The Alaska-cedar
near Old Dorm Block isn't marked as a memorial, but it was purchased by
the student body and planted in 1985 to honor Jack Dudman, a retiring
professor of mathematics and former dean. The students chose a "weeping"
variety because they wanted him to remember how sad they were to see him
go.
