Wow. There was a lot of people at the meeting. It's a good reminder that there are nice, smart and wonderful people trying to get into school just like me. It's hard not too feel overly competitive with people, but I try to keep in mind that our collective knowledge is better than just me so I will be nice.
On that note, here are two vet related opportunities I'd like to share with my fellow applicants:
On October 16 there is a vet conference in Banff, Alberta. It is called CanWest if you'd like to google it. There will be a student symposium component to the conference so I'm assuming it'll be a great place to network. The cost is roughly 190.00 to sign up. If you are going, please get in touch with me and maybe we could carpool together.
On October 28, 29 and 30 there is going to be a Spay and Neuter Clinic held in Hobbema. If you don't know what that is, please look below at the Dr. Scary blog. I believe it has a link to a YouTube video that explains it. It's a very rewarding experience.
What else? Oh, turns out my earlier rage might be misplaced? Apparently lots of people have taken classes at the U of Athabasca while attending U of A. Still trying to figure out if it's kosher or not...
Well, if you are new to U of A and are reading my blog through the Prevet club, please feel free to leave comments or questions... I am a jaded fifth year so I probably have a little insight into what U of A is like. But what Dr. Kinelly (spelling?!) said is bang on, ALES is the best faculty on campus. How would I know? I'm in the Faculty of Science.
Later everyone. <3
