New vet hospital to help meet growing demands
By VIVIAN GIANG
The Red & Black
Hallways are used as
storage rooms, board
rooms are used as class
rooms and ladies settle on
unisex bathrooms and for
get about trying to find a
private one— that luxury
has been traded in for an
office here and there.
Take a walk down the
corridors of the University’s
veterinary teaching hospi
tal and the frenzy of com
motion approaches as a
baby-like wail echoes from
one end, a dog brushes
past on his way to the pre
operation room and carts
loaded with equipment line
up along the hallways.

hospital has been in the
works for years, but execu
tion has yet to be deter
mined.
“It really depends on the
funding trying to raise
money and [waiting for]
state appropriation,” said
Tracy Giese, director of pub
lic relations for the College
of Veterinary Medicine.
“We’ve had children decide
not to have birthday pres
ents and instead asked
their friends to bring in
small gifts [for the hospi
tal] ... we’ve had gifts of
that small to gifts of more
than a million dollars.”
Because there are only 28
veterinary schools in the
country, the University’s
hospital has patients come
from as far as Virginia, Giese
said.

With a wide range of spe
cialized care and expert
physicians, the University’s
teaching hospital is a refer
ral hospital for pet owners
throughout the state and
region. For those who live
within 30 miles, the hospi
tal is their veterinary clinic,
but veterinaries from all
over the Southeast refer
clients to the teaching hos
pital when cases get too
complicated.
Framed photos of gradu
ates line the hallways,
showing soaring enrollment
since the college was
founded in 1946. The school
admits 96 students each
fall, yet there are approxi
mately 550 applicants per
year —one student is
accepted for every four
turned away.

“There’s a dire need for
vets, but unfortunately, we
can only handle 96 [per
class] right now because
we’re on top of each other,”
said Karen Aiken, client
advocate and development
officer for the teaching hos
pital. “We’re limited as to
how many we can take
it’s like a human hospital.”
In 1979, the University’s
teaching hospital opened
and has increased its annu
al case loads by 37 percent,
enrollment by 20 percent
and full-time staff by 337
percent. But the square
footage of the hospital has
grown by 4 percent.
“Look at how many peo
ple are in here,” Kathy
Bangle, director of devel
opment for the college, said
in an operation room. “This

is internal medicine
there’s people trying to
diagnose, do research, look
up things. It’s just insane
there are way too many
people in too small of
space.” '
Compared to surround
ing teaching hospitals, the
Courtbsy University of Gborgia
University’s hospital is
approximately 150,000
square feet smaller in
other words, each
University vet student has
roughly 1,700 fewer square
feet compared to students
from other institutions.
It is common to have
physicians, fourth-year stu
dents, technicians, interns
and residents all in the
same area to treat the esti
mated 13,000 large animals
and 7,000 small animals the
hospital cares for annually.
The new hospital would
be built on College Station
Road and expand square
footage nearly three times
the original hospital’s size.
The new facility would
also increase enrollment to
130 students per classroom
and allow opportunities for
medical advances, further
research and future expan
sions, Bangle said.
“It’s been great so far
really, but sometimes
especially when the juniors
and seniors are down here
it can be busy in the
hallways,” said Amanda
Rainey, a veterinary stu
dent from Anderson, S.C.
“It would be nice if we had
more computers and work
space ... sometimes we may
have a lot of patients come
in at the same time ... it’s
kind of loud with a lot of
people in a small space.”
Next to the hospital, “get
well” signs are taped to
barn stalls filled to capacity
with horses, goats and
alpacas.
Bangle said the current
hospital offers limited out
door recreational space for
animals’ recovery.
“Having the new teach
ing hospital will provide us
the wonderful opportunity
that we can actually turn
out some of the horses so
that they can be outside,”
she said.
The new hospital would
be built on a 100-acre site.
Plans also include a private
oncology entrance for
patients going through
chemotherapy or radiation,
which allows for a more
personal experience for the
animals that visit daily.
“There’s a shortage of
vets across the country ...
the case loads are pushing
the demands for vets,”
Giese said. “We see more
than 18,000 cases a year, so
it’s vital we have more
space so we can educate
more students.”
