Drumheller Fountain is an iconic outdoor fountain located on the University of Washington campus in Seattle, Washington. It was named in honor of University Regent Joseph Drumheller, who generously donated the central fountain machinery for the university's centennial celebration. The fountain has a rich history, known for its association with pranks and its nickname "Frosh Pond," where freshmen and other individuals have found themselves taking an unexpected dip over the years. It is also a popular spot for mallards to raise their ducklings, with the university installing a duck ramp each spring to assist the young ducklings in entering and leaving the fountain.
