“With this partnership at West Texas A&M, the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences continues to meet both the needs of the state and our students in the most innovative, high-quality, effective and cost-efficient manner possible,” Texas A&M Chancellor John Sharp said at the event. “We have created a two-way superhighway of veterinary education and research activity from Canyon to College Station, and it runs right through the VERO and TVMDL facilities within the Dr. Charles Graham center on the West Texas A&M campus.”

Today, even though many restrictions remain in place, the number of patients being seen at the veterinary hospital exceeds pre-pandemic levels. Like the University, it is inching closer to a full reopening, and health officials say it is one of many WSU success stories during the pandemic.
