This article is the second in a series of four to be published in the Journal of Veterinary Medical Education (JVME). These articles are abridged versions of six lectures that make up an elective course on the history of the veterinary profession in North America offered at Cornell University's College of Veterinary Medicine to students in all four years of the program. The course is built in part on a series of biographies and interviews captured in a collection at http://www.vet.cornell.edu/legacy, and complemented by a growing collection of historical and public policy blogs at http://www.veterinarylegacy.blogsite.com. This article describes the development of the veterinary profession from 1940 to 1970, with particular emphasis on World War II, the Land Grant colleges established in the mid- and late 1940s, women in veterinary medicine (1910-1970), and African-Americans (ca. 1890-1945). Though the article is somewhat Cornell-centric because the lectures were presented to Cornell students at their home institution, many events are representative of the broader American experience.
本文是即将在《兽医医学教育杂志》(JVME)上发表的系列四篇文章中的第二篇。这些文章是六场讲座的精简版,这六场讲座构成了康奈尔大学兽医学院为该项目四年制的所有学生开设的一门关于北美兽医职业历史的选修课程。该课程部分基于http://www.vet.cornell.edu/legacy上一系列传记和访谈记录,并辅以http://www.veterinarylegacy.blogsite.com上不断增加的历史和公共政策博客。本文描述了1940年至1970年兽医职业的发展,特别强调了第二次世界大战、20世纪40年代中后期建立的赠地学院、兽医医学领域的女性(1910 - 1970年)以及非裔美国人(约1890 - 1945年)。尽管由于讲座是在康奈尔大学本校面向该校学生进行的,本文在一定程度上以康奈尔大学为中心,但许多事件代表了更广泛的美国经历。
