		O'Connell has watched the Alligator change over six decades, and the paper he sees today is very different from the one he remembers when he left office in 1973 - just as that newspaper was nothing like the one he worked for as a student.
		While he did not always get along well with the student newspaper, he said he is proud to call himself "the emancipator of the Alligator," as he was president when the newspaper left campus and became independent in 1973.
		Student government and the Alligator were never as close as they were in the 1930s.

		Built in Philadelphia, the 47-foot long Alligator was primarily intended to counter the threat of the Confederate ironclad, the Virginia.
		While being towed south for the battle, the Alligator had to be cut loose during a storm off Cape Hatteras, North Carolina.
		In the Spring of 1863, at the same time that the Alligator was lost at sea, its inventor Brutus de Villeroi wrote the French Government from his home in Philadelphia in the hopes of selling a new design for a 125-foot long submarine--much more ambitious than the U.S. built Alligator.

		Leading up to the battle in Columbus was the arrival in Alabama of 13,000 cavalry soldiers led by Union Major General James Wilson.
		The Union soldiers somehow reached the bridge, but seeing they were trapped wheeled their horses around and rode back through the Confederate positions to the relative safety of their own lines.

		Alligator, painted a deep emerald green, was 47 feet in length, with a 6-foot beam, and had a row of portholes along its port and starboard sides and an enclosed topside “pilot house” at the beginning of its long conical bow.
		Alligator was designed by inventor Brutus de Villeroi, a self-described genius, who nonetheless could not convince the French government of the value of his submersible invention.
		Her first mission to demolish a bridge was cancelled because it involved going into the upper waters of the Appomattox River in Virginia, too shallow for the submersible.
