Large Animal Physical Diagnosis Final Cancelled, Rodeo Held Instead

Amid cheers and line-dancing, the professors in charge of the third term LAMS501 course opted to discard their multiple choice final exam in favor of a more clinically relevant activity: a rodeo.

Students happily accepted the opportunity to apply the skills learned in the Large Animal Physical Diagnosis class. Said one student, "Medical math and blood draws are fine, but I want to do me some ropin'!" The quote was greeted by a chorus of "yee haws."

Professors throughout the SVM hail this decision as ground-breaking in the interest of developing clinical skills.

When asked about the dangers of holding a rodeo, one professor was very reassuring, "The bull sleeps like 18 hours a day and we'll be using med students as rodeo clowns in case anything goes bad." Tickets will go on sale on Saturday at 10:30am at the LARF. All proceeds to benefit the "Get SGU Accredited" Fund.
