This image shows the expansion of the Duck Pond on the southern end of campus at Appalachian State University (1967-current) in July 1978. Construction equipment can be seen digging, and a car can be seen driving in the foreground. 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. Ducks can be seen swimming in the background. The pond renamed Tomlinson Park in 1987.
