Bio/historical note: The WCVM gavel is made of: a) a wooden handle fashioned from a fir plank taken from the old Veterinary Hygiene building (barn) which stood beside the J.S. Fulton Laboratory. This symbolizes our heritage; b) the head of the gavel is the astragalus bone from a horse (ankle bone). The bone symbolizes the animal world and veterinary medicine; c) the brick symbolizes the new building and things contemporary.
