When you were in college, there were no animals yet.
GIG 'EM!!!
I don't know about Animal Husbandry (although I did take Animal
Science classes), but when I was there in the mid 1970s, my political science prof made a pass at me once. He was drunk. He must have thought I looked like a goat or something........which made no kind of sense because I was a good lookin' kid back then — although I wasn't nearly as pretty then as I am now.

Sure there were. In fact, about that time, a party or parties who no doubt wished to remain anonymous rustled a certain very famous steer right before Thanksgiving one year, apparently oblivious to Texas law which prescribed hanging for cattle rustling. Publicity likely brought this possibility to the attention of the miscreant(s), the steer was hastily returned to its rightful owners and dignitude, such as it was, restored.

That has never been done by the Animal Husbandry majors. That is a tradition, when one dies of natural causes. This last one, who likely died of embarrassment after a dismal start to the season, was not.
