Adjacent to the Latham campus is a large pond and in this pond there are some large turtles. Although in town the pond may go by a different name, here on campus the kids have creatively named it “Turtle Pond”. Walking to the pond and standing out on the water on the dock is a regular activity for many students when the warm weather hits. Every spring, Seymour Turtle, who is approximately three feet across his back, waddles across campus to make his (although he is probably a her) way to a different mud puddle.
