The Campus Pond at the University of Massachusetts Amherst is a pond located in the center of campus that was created in the early 1890s. It is bordered to the south by the Fine Arts Center. ==History== In the early years, the pond was dammed during the winter of 1890 and 1891 by two students. Damming a river that ran through campus, the pond was justified as a source of natural ice in the days before refrigeration. Over the years, the pond was used for various student activities, as well as numerous events,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://umasshockey.com/campus-pond-history.html )〕 including the Spring Concert.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://umassalumni.com/pride/traditions.html )〕 Over the years, the number of Canadian geese has increased around the pond, a direct result of increased acreage of lawns around the region. Furthermore, their waste has combined to create a nuisance for pedestrians in and around the pond, as well as foul the pond with algae growth.
