Ryan
Veterinary Hospital
Last Friday, the University
held a dedication and renaming ceremony for the
Matthew J. Ryan Veterinary Hospital of the University
of Pennsylvania, to honor the speaker of the
Pennsylvania House of Representatives who advocated
for the school for more than 40 years.
He knew of the University
Trustees' approval of the name change prior to
his death on March 29, 2003. Dean Alan Kelly,
President Judith Rodin, and Governor Ed Rendell
were among those who praised Mr. Ryan for his
statesmanship, his integrity and humility and
his passion for the School of Veterinary Medicine,
and its two teaching hospitals. The Matthew J.
Ryan Veterinary Hospital is one of the largest
and most advanced companion animal teaching hospitals
in the world, with more than 27,000 patient visits
a year, including 11,000 emergency cases.
