White Coats
Dr. Jeanne Fairweather may not have graduated from Texas A&M
University, but she formed a bond with the university as close as
any former student. Fondly known around the College of Veterinary
Medicine & Biomedical Sciences as the "white coat doctor", she
lived a life of service to others.
That spirit now lives on in an endowment Fairweather left behind
to support future veterinarians. It provides scholarships and a
professional white coat to every student who has completed the
rigorous first year of veterinary school.
Scholarships
One of the college's highest priorities is scholarship support
for our students, while providing them with an advanced veterinary
medical education that utilizes the finest in modern technologies.
Along with these advances also come growing costs. The average debt
for a veterinary student at graduation can well exceed $55,000.
To help ease the financial burden faced by students and
graduates of the College of Veterinary Medicine, there are numerous
scholarships established and new ones being set up almost
daily.
