About Scott Outdoor Amphitheater:

One of Swarthmore's most treasured spaces, the amphitheater was designed by noted Philadelphia landscape architect Thomas W. Sears and constructed in 1942. It is there that students begin and end their four years at Swarthmore - with a tradition called First Collection, during which students pass candlelight from one to another, connecting and "collecting" the new class; and Commencement, the final step of a student's journey on campus and the beginning of the class members' new lives as graduates. Tulip trees and white oaks provide the ceiling for the amphitheater, also home to concerts, dances, theater, performance, weddings, and parties.
