As the Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine prepared to welcome students back to campus for the fall semester last week, faculty and staff were treated to a tasty taco bar as part of the college\u2019s annual Faculty and Staff appreciation event. The lunch-time gathering on Friday, August 16, featured meals that included taco, nacho, or salad toppings and churro bites as a sweet treat. The event was hosted by the college to show PVM faculty and staff how much their dedication and hard work is appreciated.

Held from 11:30 a.m. \u2013 1:30 p.m. in the Lynn Hall courtyard, the event not only featured great food but also provided opportunities for fellowship among colleagues. More than 350 faculty and staff attended the event and enjoyed the outdoor setting on a beautiful sunny afternoon.

As people mixed and mingled, Interim Dean Kathy Salisbury took the opportunity to express to everyone the college\u2019s deep appreciation for the way that the faculty and staff demonstrate a commitment to excellence throughout the year. The festive event served as a fitting wrap up to a busy summer marked by several annual programs including the Boiler Vet Camps, Vet Up<\/a>!, and the College\u2019s participation in the Indiana State Fair.<\/p>\n\n\n
