Department of Animal Science, UC Davis
HIGHLIGHTS
A PUBLICATION FOR OUR ALUMNI AND FRIENDS
Summer/Fall 2002

Chair's Message,  Gary B. Anderson, Chair

 The past year in history is one that most of us will long remember. Our lives continue to reflect a new or renewed view of that which previously we may have taken for granted. We acknowledge and take pleasure in people and events important to us. The Department of Animal Science acknowledges the support of our friends and alumni and takes pleasure in maintaining this contact through Highlights. We are especially happy to tell you about two new faculty who have joined the department and whose cutting-edge programs will help to keep the UC Davis Animal Science Department a national and international leader. We celebrate the prestigious awards received by faculty, staff and graduate students; we are particularly proud of the recognition our department has received for putting students and their education at high priority. 
 

You will read also how our faculty, while meeting the needs of an ever-growing student populations, continue to make new discoveries through research. We sadly write about the loss of our beloved Dr. O but take comfort in his legacy living on through contributions made to the Kratzer, Ogasawara and Vohra Scholarship. We also provide an update on progress toward establishment of a student award to honor the late Dr. Ian Garnett, a popular member of the Animal Science faculty who unexpectedly passed away last year. Finally, we say farewell through retirement to one faculty and three staff members who collectively represent 127 years of loyal service to UC, most in the Department of Animal Science. We appreciate our loyal friends and alumni, and we are pleased to send Highlights to keep you informed of developments in your department. If we can assist you in any way, please contact me at (530) 752-1251 or email me at gbanderson@ucdavis.edu .
