Community Champion of the Month

Who should I nominate?

All members of the LSU Vet Med community are eligible to be a champion! Here are a few examples:

• A classmate who helped you with clinical service or prepared you for that challenging exam
• A staff member who helped you troubleshoot something you have been working on or master that technique you have been struggling with
• A faculty member who spent extra time helping you prepare for a big presentation, teaching you a technique, or reviewing concepts for an exam
• A colleague who helped you get through a difficult day
• A house officer who worked hard to save a very sick patient still took the time to ensure you understood the case's principles and the treatments selected
• These are just a few examples as you consider whom you would like to nominate. Please consider nominating those individuals whom you think should be recognized!

Who can nominate?

Any student, staff, house officer, or faculty member can nominate an individual.
