Veterans: Their Expectations, Our Challenges & Legal Duties

Veterans in colleges and universities need-and deserve-special attention.

The generous GI Bill, coupled with troop reductions in the Middle East, means that more and more military veterans are showing up in higher education.

Is your campus prepared for them?

On one hand, these veteran students present a huge opportunity and potential source of revenue during difficult economic times.

On the other hand, they may pose several challenges for campus personnel.

• These returning veterans need help in adjusting to college life.
• They require assistance in choosing new careers and re-integrating to civilian life.
• They may also be dealing with the emotional aftershocks of war.

In 90-minutes we explain the services returning military personnel need to transition successfully from the battlefield to the classroom with Iraq veteran Patrick Campbell and attorney W. Scott Lewis.

This important seminar covers:

• Expectations veterans have for services on campus
• Unique needs and challenges of veterans in college
• The roles of different campus offices in dealing with military veterans
• Useful military terminology to improve communication
• How to meet the mental health needs of veterans
• Ways to coordinate services with veteran’s organizations
• Legal responsibilities for serving veteran students
