Distinguished Service
Dr. Chris Chase ('80)
From his earliest education, Chris Chase showed an interest and enthusiasm for animal health. Ultimately, his intellectual curiosity and desire to "do more" for veterinary health led him to Iowa State's College of Veterinary Medicine. Since then he has exemplified service to the animal health industry, serving as an instructor of numerous undergraduate and graduate courses at South Dakota State University. He is a frequent and sought-after speaker in the animal health community in his field of bovine immunology and virology. The South Dakota Veterinary Medical Association recently bestowed its Distinguished Service Award to Chase.
