Wow. That's actually pretty funny. I'm glad to see that someone had the snake's fate in mind anyway. It would have been a shame to see it killed just for ending up in the wrong place at the wrong time. Kudos to the student who saved the snake, even if CSU says they wouldn't have killed it.

And it's just the first week of class! What else do we have to look forward too?

If a cute cocker spaniel had wandered into the classroom, everyone would have rushed to pet it.

You know what the difference is between a bull snake and a cocker spaniel? A cocker spaniel can hurt you if it wants to.

my trouser snake has often snuck into dorm rooms and bitten young unsuspecting females.
