SPC SCHOOL OF VETERINARY TECHNOLOGY
St Petersburg College students and faculty are working through some challenges following the recent set of hurricanes. Many of our students were affected by both storms here and in other parts of Florida and North Carolina. The college is helping to provide resources for students and the faculty are working hard to make up missed instructional time. Students and faculty have been working really hard to make sure their learning has not been impacted.
Our students are very grateful for the continued support from the PCVMA as well as the PAF. We did attend the highly successful Bowser and Catsino Ball and 7 students were there to receive scholarships. We always enjoy this event when we have network with the veterinary community and get out of our scrubs for a night and dress up.
Students receiving the Pinellas Animal Foundation scholarships (8) in the amount of $625.00 each were Kelli Clark, Thomas Johnson, Dan Green, Ashley DeGraff, Emma Sandefer, Madeline Boggess, Vivian Tanner Ferrare and Jessica Rogers (not pictured). Congratulations!
Finally, our Large Animal Lab students were able to work with goats last week for their first experience handling goats. We appreciate all our farms allowing us to work with their animals. DK Farms in Largo supports our program with goats as well as rabbits.
