Q: Is there student representation on the Council on Education?

 

A: There is no student representation on the AVMA Council on Education. Given the amount of time it takes to serve on the Council and participate in the processes of accreditation, it would not be practical for current veterinary students to do so. Although the composition of the Council varies, it generally includes at least five or six members who are current faculty members at accredited veterinary schools and are thus very aware of, and sensitive to, issues of concern to veterinary students.
