These students, who come from all over the County, do have a genuine interest in veterinary medicine and are highly academically in clined. In fact their questions have at times left the speakers somewhat bewildered. Most of the young people have shown an interest in starting pre veterinary work following their graduation from high school. “Years ago it was very difficult for a girl to be ac cepted into vet school but now the ratio has become more equalized.” “These young ladies are really interested and have come to find out just what the profession is all about.” Of course not every young person involved in the Veterinary Explorer Post will go on to become veterinarians as the com petition to be accepted into vet school is quite keen; however, the career ex posure they are getting now will no doubt help them to TSC TSC TSC TSC TSC T Just what do these young people learn?

As most people know, veterinarians are always quite busy and thus it seems difficult to understand how they could take time just to talk to students. But Dr. Edclson commented on the situation by explaining, “i’vc always felt that if I could help someone un derstand their animals, the animals would be better off and so would the owner." "These young people are interested and we’d definitely like the program to continue.” The group has four more meetings until May which will include talks on equine practice and public health along with a trip to the New Bolton Center. Whether they choose to go on to be veterinarians or not, being a member of the Veterinary Explorer Post 509 has at least allowed them to learn just what the profession is all about. 36"x15" Mechanic's Creeper Regular JQQ 9.95 # Rugged and durable, with hardwood frame and vinyl covered headrest 1-3336.
