I object to this proposal and I am angry and disheartened that public comment seems to be ignored. Keep public comment open. What possible objection can there be to owners being told that students are working on our pets? I object to first year students doing procedures and believe that the rule for fourth year should remain the same. But if this is not possible there needs to be direct consent from each owner for students to work on pets. This is just common sense, please give us that much consideration and respect.
