UF studio worker I 1
finds lost snake
By College Press Service f .
uAiiNhJjviLLfc, Ha. - wnne it s true tnat
journalists occasionally have been accused
of being reptiles, it's not often that
they get much media attention just for Polls "S
hanging out with them.
A Colombian boa constrictor recently VOtC 2
was on the lam for three weeks in the your
University of Florida's College of Jour- Studei
nalism and Communications, alternately
terrorizing and amusing students, faculty
and staff after he escaped his owner's
clutches at the college's WUFT television
studios.
Van Gogh's three-week slither came to
an end in mid-January when the boa was
discovered in the studio's master control
room, not far from the spot where he
made his break in Weimer Hall, the Independent
Florida Alligator reported.
UF sophomore Jennifer Stanton, the
snake's owner, and Rocky Essex, a postbaccalaureate
student, were preparing to
shut down power in the master control
room about 11 p.m. when Essex noticed
something strange near the main power
transmitter
Essex, who is not particularly fond of BUS
snakes, said they had been talking about
the renegade reptile just before they
came across it
"I had just read about it in the Alliga_
tor," Essex said. "I said, 'I just hope we
don't find it when I'm around here.' But
's she said it was probably dead."
Then Essex spotted a cable that looked
like a snakeskin, which is exactly what it
turned out to be. Van Gogh had just shed
* it. Essex said Stanton started yelling, "It's
him! It's him! It's Van Gogh!"
The elusive snake was huddled in a
two-inch space above the transmitter
When Stanton first tried to nab the cs1
capee, Essex said Van Gogh "hissed at her
pretty bad. Gamecock Grap
But Stanton said the snake was cranky *
from shedding his skin and from malnutrition.
Bnfl
"He gets an attitude (when he sheds)," BiS
she said. "He didn't want to leave. He was KB
I comfortable."
J Not everyone in tne college or jour- b-m
nalism and Communications was happy
to see Van Gogh depart. Telecommuni
cations Chairman Gerald Smeyak said he kS
* was dejected about the snake's exit be- Efl
cause it meant the end of Dean Ralph E9
Lowenstein's periodic snake updates.
