World Veterinary Year
In 2011, World Veterinary Year marked 250 years since the establishment of the first veterinary school in France.[1] To celebrate this, the Veterinary Council of Ireland hosted a ceremony on 14 February 2011 in the Royal Dublin Society Concert Hall. One hundred and forty veterinary surgeons who had served the profession on the island of Ireland over the past 50 or more years, including twelve from Northern Ireland, were awarded commemorative medals.[2] The President of Ireland, Mary McAleese, handed the medals to the long-serving veterinary surgeons, including 98 year old Jack Powell, a 1936 graduate.[1]
