Veterinary student volunteers organize the college’s annual Open House. During Open House, more than 2,000 people tour the college and attend educational presentations to learn about the scope and depth of veterinary medicine and the college’s admissions requirements. They also enjoy entertainment such as agility dog shows, horse shows and presentations about raptors, reptiles and rabbits. Students handle logistics, marketing, media relations, crowd control and coordinating with outside vendors.
Join us for a day filled with family-friendly fun, educational exhibits, hands-on animal activities,
expert speakers, food vendors, and more!
Saturday, May 2nd | 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
