Charley still top dog to students at Chowan College The campus pet who gained national headlines for being the first dog to star with a troupe of college dramatists continues befriending multitudes of students.administratorsandprofessors. Chief cheerleader Robin Stallard, sophomore from Newport News, Va., is Charley's constant companion. They are always seen together and Charley even shares her ice cream cones. When the first production by the Chowan Children's Theatre was staged for children in public schools in North Carolina and Virginia several years ago, Charley performed the starring role in “Mr. Dooley, Jr. National recognition previously came to Charley because of his habit of sleeping through classes in Chowan s classrooms but refusing to sleep through tests. Charley eases front paws inside a classroom, peering around and listen ing intently, and -- if a professor is lecturing, he then enters and stretches out for a nap. If Charley hears no lecture, he seeks another room. "Charley knows better than some students,” explained a professor, "that you can sleep through a lecture easier than you can sleep through a test." When he stepped onstage, Charley was no sleeper; he was top dog. To Robin Stallard and his other campus companions, Charley will al ways be top dog at Chowan College.
