In the news again...

So the WSU CVM is in the news again...this time for our outreach and recruitment of the Washington State FFA members who were on campus last week for their annual state convention.

 (Special thanks to the Treadmill Team for running the demos!)

As a former national and state FFA officer myself, I have a soft-spot for these future agricultural leaders.  I also am well-aware that many of them have toyed with the idea of being a veterinarian...so this year the CVM offered a number of tours, workshops and of course, treadmill demo's for the FFA members.  Approximately 3500 students came to Pullman for the convention and about 200 made their way, at one point or another, to the CVM!
