Student Duties/Tasks
1) Class attendance by students is imperative as each day is a learning day.
2) Each student will create 2 learning projects, each worth 125 points (250 points total).
Discussions in class will define requirements for each project.
Each project must aim to educate high school and/or college students on animal health management.
Students are highly encouraged to interview campus experts that can provide insight on their projects' topic.

Material for the quizzes will be provided on this website the Thursday of the prior week.
