Local student begins studies in England
By Janice Becker
When Theresa Knox returns to
university this fall to continue her
studies in veterinary medicine, she
will be attending a school on anoth
er continent.
Theresa will be entering her sec
ond year of veterinary medicine at
the University of Bristol in south
ern England, thanks to an exchange
program developed by an associate
dean at the Ontario Veterinary Col
lege (OVC), University of Guelph.
"I am told the attitude of the stu
dents at the University of Bristol is
very different from the one experi
enced at OVC. Here, the level of
competition is very intense. The
classes are filled with students who
have always pushed to be the best
because acceptance into the OVC
course depends on marks and extra
curricular activities. The competi

"In England, I am told, the stu
dents take it a little easier. Absorb
the material, but don't kill yourself
doing it."
"I am looking forward to experi
encing the world, different views
and culture. It will be interesting to
compare attitudes, teaching meth
ods and the curriculum," says
Theresa.
"There will be some differences
in the course because Bristol teach
es no epidemiology, and toxicology
is taught at a different time. I will
have to make up the course through
correspondence."
Theresa says the biggest difficul
ty right now is packing for her four
month stay. "It's not like packing to
go to Guelph with home just a short
