Lisa Lunn has been hired as the director of the professional program in veterinary medicine and professor of food animal medicine in the College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Sciences at South Dakota State University. She will also serve as an associate dean for the college.
Lunn comes from West Texas A&M’s Veterinary Education, Research and Outreach program, where she led its 2+2 veterinary program as an associate professor of veterinary medicine. Similar to SDSU, West Texas A&M students complete their first two years of veterinary school as part of a smaller cohort before finishing the final two years of their degree at a larger university.
For SDSU, each group of 20 students moves on to the University of Minnesota; for Lunn’s former students, they joined a cohort of more than 150 students at the Texas A&M main campus.
