Caitlin Gallagher, of Bath and a member of Delaware Valley University’s Pre-Veterinary Club, traveled with club adviser Dr. Pamela Reed to Auburn University to attend the American Pre-Veterinary Medical Association (APVMA) annual symposium March 23-24. The university’s Pre-Veterinary Club was recognized with an Outstanding Club Community Service Award at the event.

The Pre-Veterinary Club’s community service activities included organizing a campuswide event to help victims of hurricanes and other natural disasters, volunteering at a local animal shelter throughout the year and participating in various other campus events.

The students visited the Montgomery Zoo as a pre-symposium trip. They then participated in a Friday night event of painting barrels to be donated to a local animal shelter. On Saturday, they attended various lectures and wet labs in areas related to veterinary medicine, as well as veterinary school and the application process.

Students also had the chance to network with admissions representatives from several veterinary schools in the United States and abroad and meet with an American Association of Veterinary Medical Colleges representative. They also learned about various internship and job opportunities from employer representatives.
