1991 and 1992 - History of the Program of Veterinary Technology at Manor College
In June 1991, before leaving the College to assume a residency position at Cornell University, Dr. McManus submitted an application for accreditation that was approved by the CVTEA in the spring of 1992. Dr. Beth Udal-Weiner and Dr. Margaret McVay shared the leadership of the Program during the 1991-1992 academic year and served as hosts for the spring on-site evaluation.
In response to the Committee's recommendation
for one full-time rather than two half-time directors, the College hired
Dr. Robin Kerlin as full-time Director and Dr. Joanna Bassert as half-time
Education Coordinator in August 1992. (Dr. Udal-Weiner and Dr. McVay
pursued other career opportunities). During this time graduate and
employer surveys were developed, the Advisory Committee and Vet. Tech.
Club were organized, and expansion of library resources for veterinary
technology was initiated. Enrollment in the fall of 1992 included 26
students.
