Texas A&M’s College of Veteri
nary Medicine recently won the
opportunity to produce a nation
wide veterinary magazine.
The magazine, titled Intervet, is
the journal of the Student American
Veterinary Medical Association.
Danette Bearing, editor of the
magazine, said she expects the first
issue of the magazine to be pub
lished in early September.
‘‘Publishing the magazine is a
big honor,” Bearing said. “It
will bring recognition to the vet
school because the magazine is
distributed to all vet students in
the country.”
Bearing said various schools
around the country compete for
the opportunity to publish the
magazine.
The magazine will not require
financial assistance from the Uni
versity, she said.
“The funding for the magazine
will come from advertising sales,”
Bearing said. “The magazine will
be self-funded and entirely pro
duced by vet students. Any profits
will go to the Student American
Veterinary Medical Association.”
The magazine will be in full
color and will have a circulation of
approximately 8,000.
Bearing said the staff is also in
vestigating the possibility of using
recycled paper for the magazine.
Br. Theresa Possum, an adviser
for the Texas A&M chapter of the
Student American Veterinary Med
ical Association, said the magazine
is an excellent opportunity for the
College of Veterinary Medicine as
well as for students.
“The magazine will bring expo
sure to the school because it is
shipped around the country,” Pos
sum said. “It also gives students
an opportunity to work on a quar
terly publication.”
It will cover topics such as cur
riculum changes, roles of animals
in society, alternative therapy and
business management.
Possum said the staff plans on
using student input to decide on
article topics.
Members of the Intervet staff
include vet students Banette Bear
ing, Lisa de Avila, Jill Woods,
Claudia Hite, John Cary, Cynthia
Glover, Linda Ray, Mark Peterson,
Aaron Wey and Bret Meckel.
The Intervet office will be lo
cated in the walkway between the
veterinary school and the Medical
Sciences Library.
Student stabbed while
performing Dracula role
The Associated Press
GALVESTON — To the audience, the blood on Bracula’s hand during
the dramatic finale looked like a prop. To cast members of the Texas
A&M-Galveston production, it meant trouble.
But Paul Bishop, the engineering sophomore in the title role, re
mained calm when the stabbing scene went awry and a knife meant to be
stuck into a prop board landed in his chest, drama club adviser Melanie
Cravey said.
Bishop, who suffered a punctured lung, was listed in good condition
Sunday at the University of Texas Medical Branch Hospital in Galveston.
He also apparently was in good humor.
“I wasn’t feeling any pain and I wanted to milk it as much as possible
without hurting myself,” he told The (Galveston County) Baily News in
Sunday’s editions.
Cast members realized something was different when Bishop raised
his bloodied hand and ad-libbed his last few lines Friday.
“I started walking on stage for the curtain call when someone yelled
that Paul had been stabbed,” drama club president Buana Boswell said. “I
knew immediately that the knife had slipped.”
Added Cravey, “We looked at each other for a minute and didn’t know
at first whether to believe it. But I knew something was weird when they
didn’t take a bow.”
The scene during the play’s last act had been practiced many times
without any problems, Boswell said.
Bishop was protected by a half-inch thick board wrapped in leather
and paraffin that was supposed to catch the board and allow it to stick
out as he rose.
School officials said they plan to investigate the accident and the uni
versity canceled the remaining two performances of the play.
To Bishop, however, the show must go on.
“I am committed to this play,” he said Saturday. “Whether it’s tonight
or next week.”
Correction
The state did not have plans to close the original Still Creek Boys
Ranch as originally reported in The Battalion. The home was not
prospering and changed licensing from a residential treatment facility
to a basic care facility. The Battalion regrets the error.
