An endowment started in recognition of Dr. Biehl’s career quickly reached the minimum level for activation, thanks to the donations of alumni, friends, and colleagues. The LeRoy G. Biehl Endowment will be used to support food animal educational programming efforts in the Continuing Education/Public Service unit.
