This campus is infested with squirrels.  No joke!  It’s truly ridiculous.  Its as if God blessed this area in abundance with squirrels that function like bunnies - multiplying by the masses.  They’re so used to humans that you can walk right next to one, be within three feet, and some of them won’t even move.  Makes you want to pounce ‘em!!!  Some have tried, most have failed, but it always seems to be on the list of every guy to catch a squirrel before they graduate.  Freshman year, we did such a thing.

    I used to live on the second floor of Dunn my freshman year.  We had our windows open during the warm weather and one day, a squirrel saw an opportune moment to jump through our bathroom window and scamper about exploring our floor.  Well, needless to say, this grabbed the attention of the 22 men who lived on that floor.  All of the sudden, doors began slamming shut and yells of excitement mixed with hands carrying cardboard boxes emerged from the woodwork.  We all cornered him into the back end of the hall.  I can only imagine, his little squirrel heart racing being surrounded by a bunch of young college students carrying weapons of entrapment with a gleam of excited anticipation in their eyes.  Needless to say, we were victorious.  We threw a box over it, caught it, and then a half an hour later (upon the request of our RD) we released it ha…so anticlimatic!

    And then there’s the time one flew into our toilet and drowned….but that’s another story all together ha.
