Historical Note

The building, which became known as the Veterinary Clinical Center, was completed in 1965 at a cost of $4.5 million. At the time, it was the largest facility of its type in the United States. In August 1965, the clinical activities were transferred into the VCC and, effective September 1, Dr. Fayne H. Oberst became its director.

The center was renamed the Veterinary Medical Center (VMC) effective September 1991.
