This section comprises various documents and papers that may be useful to students (and teachers). It will be considerably enlarged over time. We begin with a paper and a submission that both deal with surgical training for veterinary students, to illustrate that the successful gaining of surgical skills relating to veterinary practice does not require harming or killing animals. Indeed, a better and more appropriate training can result when alternatives are employed within well thought out and well structured practical courses and other opportunities for learning.The cadaver submission from Andrew Knight can be downloaded and adapted to suit your own situation, then submitted to the academics as part of a campaign for student choice and alternatives. The survey of physiology students from Massey University, performed in 2001, is an example of how students can conduct surveys as part of a campaign to reduce or replace harmful animal use. Significant reduction at Massey did result from this survey, and similar change happened at the University of Illinois, USA, after a 1999 survey there. The guide to conscientious objection, written by
the veterinarian Andrew Knight, offers advice to students regarding the
practical steps you might take to help implement conscientious objection
policies and the use of alternatives in their practical courses. The guide
also has a number of other chapters addressing the nature and efficacy of
alternatives, a collection of student testimonies, and details of further
resources.   'Ethically-Sourced
