The KSU Student Chapter of the American Association of
Equine Practitioners is an organization whose goal is to provide
veterinary students with increased exposure to issues of special
interest in the equine industry.
The level of experience in the equine industry is of no importance for
club members. All students, from those with no horse experience to
owners, experienced show and race trainers, rodeoers and farriers can
benefit from membership in this organization. All that is required to
profit from membership is a desire to learn.
Monthly meetings feature respected faculty, both veterinary and
non-veterinary equine specialists, as well as equine practitioners and
equine producers. Surgery, medicine, practice management and equine
facilities are just some of the topics discussed. Wet labs,
fund-raisers, continuing education conferences, Equine Emergency Team
and Foal Watch are some of the "hands on" activities available to
members. SCAAEP club advisors are dedicated to helping members learn
more about the equine industry. Student members also have the option of
joining the AAEP and receiving full membership benefits at a discounted
rate. The offices of President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer are
filled through elections at the December meeting. The President serves
on the SCAVMA executive board and on the SCAAEP executive council. Each
class selects a class representative to keep his/her class updated on
club news. SCAAEP invites any interested KSU/CVM student to join!
