Senior Celebration

DVM Class of 2019

Senior Celebration 4

Senior Celebration is a special evening for members of the MSU College of Veterinary Medicine. We take this opportunity to acknowledge the dedication and hard work of all our students, faculty, and staff, and to wish our graduates well in their future endeavors. This event celebrates graduation and recognizes individual members of our DVM class of 2019 for their accomplishments.

Much appreciation is due to the faculty who identified and ranked the award recipients in this evening’s program. These individuals represent all departments of the College. We wish to acknowledge and thank them for their generous efforts.

We also would like to express our gratitude to all the award sponsors and donors and the College’s Office of Development and Alumni Relations for their continued contributions and support.
