About the Boston Area
Boston, Beantown, The Hub, Athens of America ... or simply 'Really Great City'
Wheaton is the only selective, co-ed classic liberal arts college in the Boston area, and we are proud to be so close to a city that is such an important cultural, political, intellectual and economic center. Called "The Hub" by some and "The Athens of America" by others, Boston has brought us everything from clam chowder to computers. We invite you to explore some of the following links to learn more about our fair city.
