This year marks the college’s 125th anniversary, a milestone that invites us all to reflect on our legacy. It is also a moment to contemplate what has made the Cornell College of Veterinary Medicine unique — not just as at an institutional level, but at a personal one.

To do this, we want to capture the human moments — the stories, connections and mentorships that make up the fabric of the college.

“The Consult” not only tells these stories, but lets our community members do the telling. Alumni, faculty and students have come together to contemplate important moments in their lives and careers.

We bring those discussions to you — in print, audio and occasionally video — through our digital version of ’Scopes.

We hope these stories inspire dreams and instill pride — and remind everyone that what truly makes our college great are our people.
