Classroom upgrade improves learning environment

Vastly improved sight lines and seating are making the CVM’s Gross Pathology demonstration and multipurpose teaching laboratory space a better learning experience for students. A $180,000 remodeling project added bleacher seating for 60, a surgical light with a built- in camera, and a large monitor that will help students see what their instructor is demonstrating. It’s a big improvement from the days when some students had to stand for the entire demonstration and squint to see the important details.

The remodeled classroom also can record video of the demonstration (which will be used for a variety of courses) and support continuing education courses both on-site and online.
