SAVMA Symposium 2015 Announced

Introducing your new SAVMA Executive Board

Over the next several weeks, I'll be posting short bios of your SAVMA Executive Board.  The officers are a group of students that are former SAVMA Delegates, and were elected by their fellow Delegates to oversee the House. They were all sworn in to their current positions at the 2013 SAVMA Symposium at LSU.   They work hard to represent you, their fellow vet students, but many of you will never meet them face to face!  This series of posts will put a face with a name, and let you know a little bit about what SAVMA is working on on a national level.  The officers also would love to hear ideas or questions from you, so feel free to email them!
