Deer disaster scared buck terror struck students in waters hall on friday, Nov. 7 as a disoriented buck barreled through a classroom window and wreaked havoc on unsuspecting students deep crimson blood was on the crisp, white walls, while bits of broken glass captured points of light on the floor. Students in a Waters Hall classroom were unexpectedly joined by a new classmate Nov. 7 when a panic-stricken buck leapt through a plate-glass window. The students were to a lecture for their 11:30 a.m. International Relations class in Waters 041, a classroom facing the courtyard between the north facade of Waters and the Waters Hall annex. All of a sudden, we just heard this crash, Maggie Keating, senior in political science, said. Everyone was just kind of frozen. It just looked like this deer just rolled through the Keating said the class was directed to get out by Tim Schrag, classmate and K-State police officer, who took charge of the situation. Schrag, who was from western Kansas and had dealt with similar said he worried the deer would knock someone down and begin to kick them with its sharp hooves. That deer was freaked to jump through a window like that, Schrag said. I could see it was injured and really scared. The buck ' s journey to Waters began when it was spotted wandering around the adjacent feed mill garage by a student. The student, who did not want to be identified, chased the buck to run it away from campus. Instead, the buck lit off for the labyrinth of alleys and courtyards behind Waters. The student said he saw the buck jump through a door window and It then ran into the courtyard where it jumped into the classroom. Schrag said the buck tried to get back out the window, but the slick linoleum prevented it from planting its hooves. After the students and Schrag called the police, staff from the Medicine Hospital to tranquilize the deer and take it for treatment. Geoff Pye, a doctor and intern in exotic animal wildlife and zoo medicine service at K-State, treated the buck overnight before releasing it into the wild near Tuttle Creek State Park. We were very pleased with how it all went, Pye said. Pye said the deer had large lacerations on the left side of its chest and left hind leg, but was lucky it had no fractured bones. The buck was treated on a good basis by the paid for by a wildlife trust from private It was a lot bloodier than I thought it would be. It ' s all over the floors and walls, Verna Regier, junior in political science, said. My heart is still Students, slightly frazzled, scrambled in after the deer was removed to gather their books and notes — blood-stained at that point — and left class for the day. Students returning to their classroom found belongings splattered with blood from the injured deer. The buck was then taken to the veterinary hospital and treated for lacerations to its chest and leg. (Photo by Ivan Kozar) by russell fortmeyer deer in classroom.25
