Paradise Pond, formed in the 18th century by a dam on the Mill River, is both a top campus attraction and a living laboratory for science students. It’s dredged periodically to manage sediment and preserve its ecosystem. Swedish opera singer Jenny Lind reportedly named it when she visited Northampton in 1851 and found the pond, well, paradisal.
