Veterinary Science seniors celebrated Valentine’s Day with some creativity. Each student chose an animal to research and present to the class. Along with their presentation, they created a Valentine’s box designed to represent their animal.
Many students shared that the project reminded them of making Valentine’s boxes in elementary school. It was a great reminder that you’re never too old to enjoy a little creativity and holiday fun—especially when it connects to what you’re learning in class.
