Mission
Statement: The College of Veterinary Medicine Community is made up of
students, faculty, staff, administrative professional and
temporary personnel. The CVM Safety Committee has been appointed
by the Dean to address all aspects of and issues pertaining to
health and safety as consistent with WSU Policies and
Procedures. The Committee disseminates related information and
provides assistance to the CVM Community in developing plans,
actions, and assessments to enhance occupational, student,
public, and environmental health and safety. All CVM
departmental/ division safety committees and each class of DVM
students are represented on the Committee. In addition,
representatives from the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences
Library serve on the CVM Committee as we share the occupancy of
a common building (Wegner Hall) and interact in Emergency
Preparedness Plans. This is an "open" committee and all persons
of the CVM community are invited to attend the meetings and work
towards the common goal of providing a safe working environment.
