Mama Must Be So Proud
Yes, mama must be very, very proud of her little Bambi. After all, he's the first one in herd to attend college. And Villanova, no less. It must be the talk of the forest.
Two deer entered Moulden Hall on West Campus this Sunday, causing damage to the residence hall and wreaking havoc at a student barbeque. Students alerted Public Safety of the incident.
"[We responded] to a report of a live deer roaming inside the building," Public Safety Senior Investigator Jim Conway said.
At approximately 7:45 p.m., the animals entered the building through the door closest to Klekotka Hall. Resident Assistants held a barbeque for the residents of West Campus from 4 to 7 p.m., and students propped open the door as they moved in and out of the residence hall.
Five public safety officers, including a sergeant who served as shift supervisor, reported to the scene to find the deer on the ground floor in the hallway closest to Klekotka Hall. The officers proceeded to ensure that all of the doors to Moulden Hall were secured and that all students cleared out of the way.
The Public Safety officers then called Radnor Police, hoping that they would have animal tranquilizers, Conway said.
Radnor Police did not have any animal tranquilizers to offer Public Safety, but two Radnor police officers did report to the scene.
The officers worked together and "forced the deer out of the open lobby door," Conway said. The deer were not injured.
Students also reported that a fire extinguisher may have been used in an attempt to clear the deer from the building.
The deer managed to tear a sink off the wall, so they won't be welcome in the dorms anymore. No word on what classes they are registered for, either. But loyal readers will know what this all means: The Animal Uprising is seeking better educations for its stormtroopers. That does not bode well for the future.

A perfectly fine slab of free food appears at a student barbeque and nobody recognizes it as manna from on high?
I fear for the future.
