+The quad was rededicated during Homecoming Weekend of November 2013 in recognition of the lead gift from John Gates, Jr. '76, P’13 and Weezie Gates P’13, among others. Parents and Trinity alumni hoped to bring positive change to the "campus feel."

-The project, which cost about $2.65 million, was designed by Chicago-based Hoerr Schaudt Landscape Architects and constructed by firm Kirchhoff-Consigli.
-Previously, the quad was a simple grassy hill. The renovation created more accessible paths for students to and from Mather Hall, one of the most central places on campus. Multiple paths now lead from Mather to the Library, Austin Arts Center, Clement Building, Long Walk, Hallden Hall, and South Campus dormitories.

 More security measures, including LED lights, were added to the quad to increase student safety. The new design also improved the Mather [[cave|Cave]] entrance, adding a rounded patio into the hill for a natural amphitheater.
