Duck Pond, 1968

This image shows three ducks standing by the Duck Pond at Appalachian State University (1967-current) in May 1968. Justice Hall, built 1952, and Coltrane Residence Hall, under construction and completed in 1968, can be seen in the background. Since 1927, the pond was present on Appalachian State campus. Ducks populated the pond steadily until the early 1980s, when the University began limiting the amount of ducks in residence. The pond renamed Tomlinson Park in 1987.
