I agree with David. But then I wondered if there are programs for getting an undergraduate degree that don't use animal studies in their courses of study. (Personally, that is hard for me to fathom in light of my own experiences). Are there people on the list who would have a program allowing students who object to animal research (or whatever name the students tend to give to it). I'm sure that some of our students could get through and claim or even really not remember it (sic) but I'm really wondering if there are undergraduate counseling/SW tracks that might not include much reference to the animal literature.
