This is a sketch of Harvard Yard, where all Harvard undergraduates live during their freshman year. I chose to draw this because it is by far the most familiar part of Harvard to me. Obviously, because I live here (Lionel Hall to be exact), I spend the vast majority of my time in the yard, so I have gotten to know the buildings very well. I think I got the sizes and locations of the buildings pretty accurate, but the walkways across the yard are just a mess and there is no way I could remember them exactly. Because I live in Lionel Hall, I am most familiar with that side of the yard, so I think that is the most accurate part of the sketch, but overall I think I remembered the layout of the yard as a whole pretty well.
