The United States Ambassador to New Zealand, David Huebner, will visit the Manawatu campus tomorrow.

A native of Pennsylvania and long-time resident of California, Mr Huebner is a graduate of Princeton University, where he studied at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, and of the Yale Law School.

He will be welcomed by Vice-Chancellor Steve Maharey and several senior staff at University House, and will visit the Institute of Food, Nutrition and Human Health and the Institute of Veterinary Animal and Biomedical Sciences.

Massey University is the only New Zealand University to receive American accreditation for its veterinary programmes. More than 170 students from the United States study at the campus and numerous Massey graduates are living and working in the United States, many in senior business, professional and academic roles.
