Frank Stanton was born in Muskegon, Michigan on March 20, 1908. Stanton grew up in Dayton, Ohio, and attended Ohio Wesleyan University as a pre-medical student. He put himself through college by working in the advertising department of a Dayton retailer. He graduated from Wesleyan with a BA in 1930 and taught typography for a year at a trade school before accepting an offer from Ohio State to teach psychology. He received both a master's ('32) and PhD ('35) in psychology and an honorary doctorate ('49) in law from Ohio State. He married the former Ruth Stephenson in 1931; she died in 1992. An avid lover of dogs, Stanton was president of CBS from 1946 until 1971, and was a major innovator of mass-media practices and programming innovations, initiating the modern presidential debate with John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon in 1959

Mission — The Frank Stanton Veterinary Spectrum of Care Clinic provides a hands-on, real world working veterinary practice environment for graduating senior veterinary school students. The students serve as care lead, with support from faculty clinicians and veterinary technicians, working directly with you and your pet. Upon receiving their doctor of veterinary medicine degree (DVM), graduating students will become veterinarians who understand and embrace their role in providing veterinary care across a broad socioeconomic continuum, involving the entire spectrum of care, and who will have developed cultural competencies, social awareness, and civic responsibility to animals and people in need
