Cushing House is one
of the 10 houses of "the Quad." The
short path from the Quad to the center of campus passes the
president's house and offers a beautiful view of Paradise
Pond.
The
complex was built in stages starting in 1922, to alleviate a housing
shortage on campus. When
all the houses were completed in 1936, William Allen Neilson,
then president of Smith, pronounced it the "Great Quadrangle."
 
Since academic buildings are a 10-min. walk away and downtown Northampton is a 15-min. walk, many students enjoy having a bicycle. Cushing is also easily accessible to the fare-free Five College bus service, aiding students to take advantage of the Five College interchange system. The buses are also an easy way to get around the Pioneer Valley.
