Favorite Part about APSC: “Virginia Tech is very unique in the way it allows students to have hands-on experiences with animals that some people would otherwise never have the opportunity to work with. I feel this allows students to form a better understanding of their interests within the field of APSC and is invaluable to our future success.”
