Abstract

In the last 85 years, the veterinary college at Middlesex University was the only U.S. veterinary institution that opened and then closed its doors, not surviving to the present. Established in 1938 in the Waltham suburb of Boston, Middlesex was a private venture of Dr. John Hall Smith, a Boston surgeon.
