Veterans and Military Center
A place for camaraderie and friendship
Βι¶ΉΣ³» Military Support Alliance
This is our why. This is our Center.
The Veteran and Military Center is a place on campus dedicated to supporting the transition of military-connected students through higher education, career and civic endeavors. For our students, the VMC is more than just a location. It upholds familiar traditions that many have experienced in the military, including camaraderie, respect and a sense of belonging. By demonstrating these values at its very foundation, the VMC helps students connect with others; use resources; and work towards academic, personal and professional goals while developing genuine friendships along the way.
Students benefit from spending time in the VMC and joining the Wolf Pack Veterans Club or Omega Delta Sigma because it creates accountability outside of themselves, provides an opportunity to network and gain leadership roles, and helps students stay informed about updated benefits and resource information. Veteran Services provides students with a place to be understood, valued and a part of something bigger than themselves.
