The College of Veterinary Medicine is bringing its expertise to Nassau County elementary schools this summer as part of the federally funded “League of VetaHumanz” program. Students Rachel Pak and Christine Parascandola, as well as Professor Elena Contreras, deliver lessons on animal skeletons and skulls, the circulatory system, types of veterinarians, the cow’s digestive system, and viruses.
