I Oppose!
 

I greatly oppose this law, being a Vet Tech Student I realize how big of an impact this would have on my learning experience in a veterinary hospital. I think that this law will discourage veterinary hospitals from mentoring students due to the amount of paperwork that would need to be done. I also believe that owners would be uncomfortable letting students work with their pets even under the supervision of a veterinarian.
