After serving in the Army from 1955-1957, he earned a bachelor's degree in agriculture in 1959 and a doctorate of veterinary medicine degree in 1961, both from Kansas State." .... "Playter operated a mixed, private practice in Hays, Kan., from 1961 to 1970. He then attended Texas A&M and earned a master's degree in veterinary medicine and surgery and joined the faculty as an assistant professor in the small animal clinic. In 1975, he became a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists."..."Playter advanced professionally to become an associate professor, full professor and department head of small animal medicine and surgery at Texas A&M. He was chosen to be the director of the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital at Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y., which he held from 1985 to 1990. Playter then returned to Texas A&M as the associate dean for clinical and outreach programs, hospital director and director of the continuing education program for the university's College of Veterinary Medicine from 1990-1996. For the next year, Playter resumed teaching, but in 1997 was asked to serve as the interim dean for the college. From 1998-1999, he was then appointed to the title of executive associate dean. He retired in June 1999." http://www.hpj.com/archives/texas-veterinarian-receives-alumni-award-from-k-state/article_bd76883b-ead2-5c56-89a1-6b5f506a217e.html | en |
