Faculty and staff gathered in the Dean’s office last week to wish Terry Robertson, Facilities Coordinator, a great retirement and to share stories of his many contributions to CVM.
Kris Otteman, Director of the Oregon Humane Society acknowledged Robertson’s help in establishing CVM’s ground-breaking teaching program at the Animal Medical Learning Center: “The contributions you have made in helping us get the AMLC at OHS up and running, as well as other work you have done at OSU, are lasting and appreciated”
Robertson’s ‘can do’ attitude and extensive network of contacts made him invaluable to a growing college. He was instrumental in a successful and cost-effective restoration of the historic Dryden barn and in the ongoing remodeling of Dryden Hall. “Terry has a special knack for finding the best deal in town when it came to capital projects,” says Dean Cyril Clarke.
“It has been a wonderful ride,” says Robertson. “I want to thank you all for making it fun!”
