The conference will be held at the K-State Student Union, on the
Corner of 17th and Anderson Avenue.
If you are a 2005, 2006, or
2007 DVM graduate, veterinary student or veterinary technician, then
your conference registration is available at a reduced rate (see
pages 10-11). The Continuing Education Committee hopes this price
break will help recent graduates get started in their professional
continuing education programs.
A late fee of $25.00 will be
added to all registrations after May 9, 2008.
Refunds, less $50.00 handling
charge, will be made if notification is received by May 23, 2008.
