Additionally, it holds details of resources and contacts available to our students so that each student can be knowledgeable of all the many possibilities included in the Faulkner experience. The college experience is one of excitement and challenge and we hope you will be intentional with your own experience seeking to broaden your scope and push yourself to learn and grow spiritually, educationally and personally.

Living and learning within the Faulkner community is a privilege for each of us. As such, we are called to conduct ourselves in ways that respect one another even when we have differences whether seemingly small or big. Our hope is to practice the “love of Christ” by attempting to accomplish what is the best interest of one another in the context of our mission here at Faulkner. It is the responsibility of each student to read and understand the parameters and expectations outlined in this Student Handbook, which serves as an important resource and guide for your time here. Please take the necessary time to familiarize yourself with these guidelines and campus policies. Once again “Welcome to the Faulkner Family”.

Sustaining Our Legacy & Advancing Veterinary Medicine for Future Generations” TUSKEGEE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF VETERINARY MEDICINE COLLEGE OF VETERINARY MEDICINE Office of the Dean reetings and welcome to this issue of the Veterinary Medical Perspective magazine. I hope that you enjoy reading and reflecting with this issue of the Perspective. With this unprecedented time and in the midst of global fear and anxiety from the Gcoronavirus disease COVID-19 pandemic, we have been impacted by the widespread of civil unrest from the unjustified murder of unarmed black men and women over the past months. The anger that developed from many of us including our students added to the anxiety and tension of having to teach and learn in an already compromised delivery of our educational programs in a pandemic environment. To support each other as a College family, we utilized a zoom platform to hold a three-part series with our TUCVM Family of faculty, staff, students and alumni on the topic: “Society, Injustice, Racism, and Health” as we navigate through this current state of a pandemic which has compromised all of us and with the additional impact from societal ills of injustice, racism and the impact on the health of people in particular African Americans, and also other people of color. I express my sincere gratitude to the TUCVM family for their support while I served as Acting President of the University during the spring semester of 2020 while President McNair was on medical leave.
