’63 Raises the Bar

The CVHS’s 2005 fall conference featured a keynote address by Dr. Stephen Sundlof, director of the Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Veterinary Medicine. His address is the first in a series of lectures made possible by the Class of 1963 Endowed Distinguished Lectureship.

The endowed lectureship is the way the class of 1963 chose to give back to the college, says Dr. Michael Lorenz, CVHS dean. “Prominent lecturers on campus provide national visibility for our program and enhance the experience of our students, faculty and alumni registrants. Because we now have an endowment to support it, the lectureship will occur every year at fall conference, giving a new dimension to our conference activities.”

The speakers for the distinguished lectureship series will be leaders from across North America with national and international reputations in biomedical research, veterinary science medicine.
