Which college's landscape did Olmsted not design?

  • Harvard University

  • Mount Holyoke College

  • Trinity College

  • Stanford University

Answer

Mount Holyoke College stands out as the only women's college in the United States that did not have its campus designed by the renowned landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted. Instead, the college's picturesque grounds were shaped by the vision of its first president, Mary Lyon, and subsequent landscape architects who preserved and enhanced its natural beauty while accommodating the evolving needs of the institution.
