The rare preserved bird that was taken from Olmstead Hall was returned last night, September 29, at around 10:35, according to an all-campus email sent out this morning by Dean of the College Chris Roellke. The original statement, from Associate Director of Security Kim Squillace, commends those who took it for “returning the bird for its historical value and recognizing the dangers of keeping the bird.”
Squillace warns that if anyone has had contact with the bird, which was treated with arsenic, they are advised to “seek medical attention through Health Services or your doctor.”
