I received a bachelor's degree in Economics from UCLA. Later I came to Davis
where I received 2 master's degrees, in Avian Sciences and Agricultural
Economics. followed by a Ph.D. in Ecology. The degree in Ecology was before
there was a Epidemiology Graduate Group, so those of us wishing to major
in Epidemiology selected either the Comparative Pathology or Ecology Graduate
Group in which to matriculate. I stayed in Davis because it has the most
outstanding veterinary Epidemiology group in the world.
