The initial recipients of two endowed professorships established by Lora and Russ Talbot were honored earlier this year in separate ceremonies.

The Talbots have created three named professorships, the Lora and Russ Talbot Endowed Professor in Veterinary Medicine. Two of those named positions have been filled by Dr. Rachel Allbaugh, associate professor of veterinary clinical sciences, and Dr. Heather Greenlee, professor of biomedical sciences.
“The impact that these named faculty positions have cannot be overstated,” said Dr. Dan Grooms, the Dr. Stephen G. Juelsgaard Dean of Veterinary Medicine. “We are grateful to Lora and Russ, not only for these commitments, but to the scholarships, fellowships and countless other gifts they have made to the College of Veterinary Medicine to help us fulfill our mission.”
