STILLWATER, Okla.—Oklahoma State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine continues its 60 year old tradition of excellence since opening its doors in 1948.  To do this in part, it relies on a team of top-notch faculty to train the next generation of veterinarians.  At the College’s Annual Awards Banquet held recently, one such faculty member was recognized for his contributions.  Dr. Jim Meinkoth received the 2008 Carl J.
