Decades ago two rows of spruce trees were planted in front of McCullough to block the wind and define the field lines of the old football field (now the quad in front of the student center). They are generally healthy trees and typical of Vermont since they can withstand very harsh winters, but at Middlebury few remain from the original full rows. The College celebrates the towering evergreens it has left by decorating one each winter as the nondenominational holiday tree.
