SCCTC Veterinary Science program

We would like to congratulate one of the junior Vet Science students, Maylin Bacon Velasquez, for being inducted into the National Technical Honor Society! We are so proud of your accomplishment!🎉🥳

Our Vet Science students got hands on with parasitology today. 🐾🧪 They used an edible lab with various pudding to practice describing color, consistency, and shape. Spaghetti stood in for roundworms and rice for tapeworms. (yes, it was as fun and gross as it sounds 😄)
To bring it all together, students also did real f***l analysis on our program animals, building skills they’ll use in the field and learning why zoonotic parasites matter in preventive care.
Definitely a messy, memorable day of learning! 🐶🪱
