Reception at WVC in Las Vegas Celebrates PVM Alumni and Friends

Almost 40 Purdue Veterinary Medicine alumni and friends turned-out for the annual Purdue Alumni Reception at the Western Veterinary Conference (WVC), powered by Viticus Group, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Attendees renewed acquaintances, visited with PVM faculty who were in attendance, and heard an update on the college from Dean Willie Reed.  In some cases, members of a given class would realize they had enough classmates present for a mini reunion.  

The reception was held Monday, March 7 at the Mandalay Bay Conference Center, which was the site for the 2022 WVC Conference.
