This question just struck me today!!
Can people who have minor color-blindness (minor red-green color blind) go to vet school and become vet?

Yes. Our teacher 1st year was telling us the story of how they had a color blind vet student in their histology class. The problem was that he didn't inform the teachers that he was in fact color blind and couldn't distinguish the different colors of stains. They went on to tell us that if we were color blind, they really just needed to know so they could make some accommodations for testing purposes.This question just struck me today!!

So, people with mild color blind are not actually "Banned" from becoming a vet, right?
One of the vets I work with is the first vet to be admitted to vet school and graduate as a paraplegic. She's quite inspirational!
