he around outside of class and was
always very generous and very grate
ful. He was very much a Southern
gentleman.”
When Bell spoke about his stu
dents. he took his feet off his desk,
sat up proudly and said, “The big
gest asset of A&M is the friendship
of its students. Over the past years,
we (the University) have received
more compliments on students than
we have on anything else.”
Students now are better prepared
academnaily for college, out they
are not prepared enough before
hand for the kind of trAning they
will receive while pursuing a D.V.M.
Opportunities for hands-on experi
ence are limited todav. The situation
was different when Bell was in

“Many parents ol A&M students
are middle-income families." Yates
said. “They make too much money
to get financial aid. but they can’t al
ways afford to send their children
through college. So parents in these
situation* encourage their children
to co-op.”

Yates said faculty members also
encourage students to get involved
in the program because co-op stu
dents prove to be more motivated to
do well in school than students who
do not co-op.
“Co-op students actually improve
their grades because they learn,
while working, that what they learn
in school will one dav be applied to
their jobs." Yates said
The overall GPR of undergrad
uates at A&M is 2.48 and 2.7 for
graduating seniors, but the GPR of
co-op students averages is 3.1.
Students become more motivated
to do u^ll 1h school because they
kn«w that by maintaining a high
GPA as well as obtaining signifuani
work experience, thev will have a
better chance of receiving a higher
paring job. Yates said.
Two percent of the student body
is involved in the program, but Yates
said he hopes by 1993. 5 percent will
he involved. Yates said this is a viable
goal because it is so easy to in
volved and the requirements of each
student are not hard to meet.
”It’s just a different time.” he said.
“There are different requirements
and different needs.”
Bell said the most rewarding iking
about his job, and the thing he will
miss the most, is interacting and
working with students. He said he
especially enjoys seeing the successes
his students have made of thera-
wlvrs
In 1963 Bell received tenure, but
he said it did not carry the same
weight as it does today.
“Back then, when you received
tenure, it was an extra achievement.”
Bell said. “It was more informal and
not as important back then. Todav it
has become a necresity for people to
advance in their careers and to be
come successful.”
Bell said he realized that if he
wanted to advance in education, he
would have to pursue a Ph D Bell
took a leave of absence to attend
classes at the Unrversitv of Minne
sota. but continued to do his re
search at AlcM He received his
Ph D. in 1968
While in Minnesota, Bell met
JoAnne Wet more, who became his
wife in 1964. Bell and his wife have
two sons. Thomas, 23, a crew chief
for plane maintenance and service in
the U S. Air Force: and James. 22, a
senior at AJcM majoring in engi
neering technology.
In 1967 Bell became head of the
Department of Parasitology, and
served until 1977 when the depart
ment was merged with the Depart
ment of Miciobwlogy.
He has served unaer five deans <lf
the College of Veterinary MetBume.
Dr. Alvin A. Price, dean emeritus.
C lessor emeritus and director of
nedical science, has worked with
Bell since he came to A&M.
“Dr. Bell is a dear friend of mine,"
Price said “He was verv productive,
and I made him head of his depart
ment when I served as dean of veter
inary medicine."
