Can Vet Schools Teach without Killing Animals?
Mangan, Katherine S.
Chronicle of Higher Education, v46 n22 pA53-A54 Feb 4, 2000
Discusses a protest by students at the University of Illinois (Urbana) College of Veterinary Medicine over the killing of animals that led to temporary curtailing of lethal animal experiments. Examines the conflict between animal rights groups and some faculty who are openly skeptical about the effectiveness of alternatives to the hands-on experience provided by the laboratories. (DB)
