Taking a Different Path<br />
LELAND LISTON EARNS HIS DVM DEGREE — AT AGE 49<br />
A career in veterinary medicine requires many years of study. And for<br />
one senior veterinary student at Oklahoma State University’s Center<br />
for <strong>Vet</strong>erinary Health Sciences, that road was much, much longer.<br />
Leland Liston, of Claremore, Okla., earned his Doctorate of<br />
<strong>Vet</strong>erinary Medicine in May <strong>2015</strong>. It’s not the 49-year-old’s first<br />
career. Originally from Los Angeles, Liston spent 20 years there<br />
repairing cars at a Chevrolet dealership.<br />
