A striking marble fountain bearing the university seal greets those stepping onto the John A. Cable ’45 Arrival Court in front of the Alumni Memorial Building. The fountain, in the center of a circular driveway, is one of several fountains that can be found on campus that provide beauty, and perhaps when needed, places for contemplation.

Look around, and you will also find fountains:

At the south side of Wilbur Powerhouse.
At the south entrance to Packard Laboratory.
At the south entrance to Chandler-Ullmann Hall
At Campus Square
At the STEPS Building, where students can view the waterfall feature from windows overlooking an outdoor courtyard.

In addition to the mechanical fountains, there is a natural spring water fountain in the parking lot retaining wall between Drinker and Dravo resident houses.
