<p>faux,</p>
<p>is it whitman college that is in spokane?</p>
<p>stanford, i believe, is olmsted designed. so is denison. olmsted liked to combine nature and urban in a pleasing design.</p>
<p>Whitworth is located in Spokane.
Whitman is located in Walla Walla, Washington.</p>
<p>Another plug for Lewis & Clark as far as a forested campus. When we visited I was amazed by how beautiful it is. My son was less impressed, for the same reason… he said it looked too much to him like a wildlife reserve. He prefers his nature a bit more designed and cultivated, I think.</p>
<p>From a visit this summer,cannot agree that Hobart has a “foresty” character. It is park-like.</p>
<p>OP, sounds like you like well treed and manicured campuses rather than those really in the woods. Duke? It’s a jungle near that campus but not the woods! A quarter of the colleges in New England are literally in the woods with endless outdoor opportunities and the ability to walk off campus and onto trails.</p>
<p>hmom, yeah, no doubt. Durham is pretty gross. I’m into the campus, rather than the surrounding area.</p>
<p>University of Washington campus is also Olmsted designed. Washington Park Arboretum, managed by UW Botanic Gardens is also Olmsted designed.</p>
<p>Haverford College in Philadelphia is also a beautiful campus surrounded by wooded area and ponds.</p>
