Bustad Papers 1912-2005, Cage 942 (Biography/History: Leo K. Bustad was born in 1920 in Stanwood, Washington. He received his B.A. in Agriculture from Washington State College (now Washington State University) in 1941. Within a year of graduation, he married Signe Byrd, a Washington State College graduate in Home Economics Education, and was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Army, serving in Italy and Germany during World War II. He returned to Pullman in 1945, after being a prisoner of war in a German prison camp for fifteen months. Dr. Bustad went on to receive his M.A. in Animal Nutrition in 1948 and his D.V.M. in 1949 from Washington State College, as well as a Ph.D. in Physiology in 1960 from the University of Washington. From 1949 to 1965, he also directed biological research at Hanford Laboratories in Benton County, Washington. He then went on to become the Director of the Radiobiology Laboratory and Comparative Oncology Laboratory at the University of California, Davis, before returning to WSU as the Dean of the College of Veterinary Medicine (1973-1983). Dr. Bustad's research initially focused on the physiological effects of radiation exposure, but he is most widely known for spearheading the study of human-animal interaction and the human-animal bond. The WSU Veterinary Science Building was renamed Bustad Hall in 1985 in honor of Dr. Bustad's service as Dean of the College of Veterinary Medicine. He remained an active member of the Pullman community until his death in 1998.) - http://ntserver1.wsulibs.wsu.edu/masc/finders/cg942.htm
