Campus pond ecirns ploce in students' memories Our little pond, although not as famous as Henry David Tho- reau's Walden Lake, may find a permanent place in our memo- ries. There weren't any pirate ships or Loch Ness monsters, but at times the pond housed some pretty ferocious ducks. Who could forget the hours at lunch spent watching the water and enjoying the natural beauty of the pondside? Warm days were spent sitting on the grass, soaking up the sun and feeding the ducks. - s . AX I 24 f Student Life Nlost every senior, at one time or another, thought of tossing a junior in the pond. But they held back the urge not wanting to invite school suspension or the horror of not graduating. On May Day, seniors would get a chance to release their energies as they flex their muscles to drag juniors into the pond during the annual Great Tug-of-War. Unlike most things today, the pond if nothing else, remains con- stant. lt remains as a unifying force that brings the school together. Located between the student parking lot and the school buildings, it is the first and last view of the campus for everyone. A5
