On May 2, 2014, parents received an alarming robocall from Dr. Covert informing them of a campus lockdown due to “alligator activity.” Four eight-foot alligators were captured on campus by a wily trapper who lured them into his snare with the use of recorded mating calls. This was obviously acceptable as the alligators handily proved they were not Pine View caliber, falling for the old mating call trick. The news story was printed in the Herald Tribune locally as well as making the national news and morning talk shows. I remember getting that call and being incredibly confused, and it was hilarious to hear about what had happened afterwards!
