The photograph on the past cover of the Iowa State University Veterinarian brought a flurry of phone calls and even a letter.

After having a telephone conversation with Dr. Norton, I conclude my experience on this journal has been similar to his. I believe the ISU Veterinarian and the people on it have provided me with one of the most unique opportunities anyone can have at this university
