I'm always proud when our graduates take flight, but also worried knowing how harsh the veterinary profession can be.

What do professional socialization in VetEd and grant writing have in common? We can both use a challenge-focused professional identity.

Professional socialization in veterinary education - or teaching veterinarians how to be veterinarians - starts before students arrive at university. But are we expecting too much from them if we expect them to already have experience when they arrive at 18 years old?
