Not far from the University of Wisconsin Hospital, tucked behind the Goodman Diamond softball complex, a sea of green cattails shuffles in the breeze and a red-winged blackbird peevishly chases a couple of sparrows in the Class of 1918 Marsh, an often-overlooked part of the UW-Madison?s Lakeshore Nature Preserve. The area is a quiet, scenic escape from the hustle of the nearby campus and city, and its history is unique and endearing.
