A brief description of the institution’s main campus and other aspects of the institutional boundary used to complete this report:
Pomona College's campus spans 140 acres. Thirty acres consist of natural, non-irrigated native landscape (The Wash) dominated by native oak trees. Pomona also has a 1.2 acre Organic Farm as part of The Wash, which grows a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, a bee hive, and a chicken coop. The remaining 110 acres features a mix of drought-tolerant landscaping, traditional landscaping, turfgrass, and hundreds of trees. Pomona has 62 campus buildings, including 13 dorms. Pomona's athletic facilities include tennis courts, soccer, softball, baseball, and hammer throw fields, and swimming pools.
