THE SCHOOL OF veTCRinARY mGDicme DEAN R. P. MARSTELLER This school has for its object the systematic training of young men in all matters pertaining to diseases of domestic animals. It is one of the most progressive schools in the institution, growing rapidly in enrollment and scope of activity. The six departments embraced by the school include Veterinary Pathology, Veterinary Parisitology, Veterinary Medicine and Surgery, Veterinary Anatomy, Veterinary Hygiene, and Veterinary Physiology and Pharmacology. Upon completion of the prescribed courses of study the graduate is prepared to engage in commercial practice, to enter the Veterinary Corps of the United States Army, or to work in the State and Federal Bureaus of Animal Industry. All buildings and equipment used by this school are modern and well arranged. The School of Veterinary Medicine uses Francis Hall, the Veterinary Hospital, and the Anatomy Building for class¬ rooms, laboratories, and clinics. Dean R. P. Marsteller, who has been head of the School of Veterinary Medicine for three years, deserves much credit for his contribution to the development of his School. When it is remembered that the value of domestic animals in Texas exceeds five hundred million dollars, it becomes apparent that the work done by graduates of this School is of great value to the State.
