The Western University of Health Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine, is pleased to announce that local student William Jolley, son of Susan K. and Robert Jolley, has been seated for the incoming class of 2014. One of the nation’s newest and most innovative colleges of Veterinary Medicine, Western has recently received full accreditation and will seat 100 students out of approximately 4,000 applicants this year. An honor’s graduate of Hart High School, William earned a Regent’s Scholarship to study science at UC Santa Barbara. Switching to Cal Poly to pursue a specialization in Agricultural Biology, he was named class valedictorian in 2005. Since then he has pursued a career of ranch management and beekeeping. William plans to pursue large animal medicine and hopes to specialize in surgery. When he graduates in 2014, he will not be the first, but the second physician in his family. Younger sister Margaret is currently completing her second year of medical school at UC San Diego.
Congratulations, Drs. Jolley!
