Breaking with Tradition: The Reform of British Veterinary Education 1900-20
Kraft, Alison
History of Education, v33 n3 p317-336 May 2004
What obstructions stand in the way of our universities in their endeavours to develop higher courses in Veterinary medicine cannot be realised by Parliament and the general public. These obstructions are due to the continued existence of regulations which should have been swept away long ago, and, I must add, to the most regrettable inertia of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons. It is intolerable that courses of instruction rendering a candidate eligible to practise as a veterinary surgeon can only be given by the universities of this country provided they receive the approval of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons.
