WSVMA Awards
Each year, the Washington State Veterinary Medical Association (WSVMA) honor
individuals whose service has contributed significantly to the veterinary
profession in Washington State. Our WSU Faculty have received numerous
awards including the "WSVMA Veterinarian of the Year" award, the
"Distinguished Achievement" award, and the "WSU Faculty Member of the Year"
award.
WSVMA Veterinarian of the Year: The "WSVMA Veterinarian of the
Year" Award is given annually to the association member recognized for an
outstanding career in veterinary medicine. The recipient must have shown
remarkable achievement in professional service, community service, and
fields other than veterinary medicine.
Distinguished Achievement Award: The "Distinguished
Achievement" award is given in recognition of a singular outstanding
achievement in veterinary medicine, public service, or other field of
endeavor which reflects honor to the veterinary profession. Recipients do
not need to be veterinarians, but veterinary recipients must be WSVMA
members.
WSU Faculty Member of the Year: The "WSU Faculty Member of
the Year" award is presented to recognize a WSU Faculty member who has
served members of the WSVMA with distinction.
Humane Animal Welfare Award: The “Humane Animal Welfare”
award is presented to a non-veterinarian who has advanced animal welfare
through extraordinary service.
