too many pictures, too little content. Too bad
[[Image:Tree, Morgan, Jesup.JPG|right|thumb|A view from the science quad, looking (mostly) east]]
The Science Quad is a nice grassy area framed by , clockwise from the top: [[West College|West]], [[Morgan]], [[Jesup Hall|Jesup]], the [[Physics]]-[[Schow]]-[[Chemistry]]-[[Biology]] building complex, [[Bronfman Science Center|Bronfman]], and [[Clark Geosciences Building|Clark]]. Near the center of the quad is a large and distinctive [[Tree Climbing|tree]]. Sometimes people play frisbee on the quad, or even study, especially residents of [[West College|West]] and [[Morgan]].

The [[Math]], [[Physics]], [[Biology]], [[Chemistry]], [[Computer Science]], and [[Psychology]] departments have their headquarters in the science quad. Most classes, labs, and professors' offices for these departments are held or housed in the science quad. Occasionally the science quad classrooms will be used for another discipline; this often occurs with [[Wege Auditorium]], as it is a good place to hold large classes.
At 8:55, 9:55, and 10:55 am on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, the science quad is a busy place as students come and go to 50-minute math and science classes. It is especially busy at 10:55 as students rush to the [[Eco-Cafe]] before their [[Breakfast points|breakfast points]] run out at 11.
==Fun alternative uses of the science quad==
* Many classrooms have projectors with VCRs and DVD players. You can watch movies on a relatively big screen with surround sound on good speakers on a weekend night in many classrooms in [[Bronfman Science Center|Bronfman]] and [[Thompson Chemistry Laboratory|Chemistry]], at least.
* The final round of that killing game is played in Bronfman all night until only one survivor remains.
* The hill down from [[West College|West]] is not very good for [[Sledding|sledding]], but you can try.
