I returned to Jackson's field today closer to my actual planned shooting time to double check the lighting. As feared the tree remains to be in a shadowed area despite the earlier time. This means that to ensure the actors are well lit, the background becomes very washed out. I am considering still using this location and combining the washed out background with the tree setting to convey that the characters sit in the tree to be disconnected from regular life.
However, should I not follow this idea I decided to try and find a suitable replacement location. I ended up finding a bench near to halls that is also overlooked by the university. I think this could be a powerful feature as the university would be a constant onlooker in the background, appearing inevitable as the characters plan to avoid it.
