A Visual Celebration of our People, Animals, and Purpose that Inspire

For more than 25 years, photographer Phil Snow has been capturing the heart of the College of Veterinary Medicine through his lens. His images tell the story of our community: the dedication of our students, the compassion of our clinicians, and the quiet moments of discovery that happen every day in the college. Snow’s work reflects the spirit, curiosity, and care that define life at the college. This photo spread offers a glimpse into some of his favorite moments from the past year.
