did you see the boston globe's puff piece on the wang center? Center of attention on a centerless campus

"The campus is so inscrutable. Visitors never quite get it," says Mack Scogin, a former chairman of architecture at Harvard University's Graduate School of Design who designed Wang with his wife and partner Merrill Elam.

Even as far back as 1902, noted landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. was confused by Wellesley. "I must admit that the exceedingly intricate and complex topography and the peculiarly scattered arrangement of most of the buildings somewhat baffled me," wrote Olmsted. "I came away with a less clear and comprehensive grasp of the whole situation than I could wish."
