It’s time for Spring Semester.
Don’t forget about us!
The Veterans Services Center would like to welcome back our returning students, and we
want to wish you the best of luck this semester. Please don’t hesitate to stop by if you
need any help, have any questions, or just need a place to hang out.
We would also like to welcome and extend an invitation to all new students to come and
check out our Center. The Veterans Services Center is open to all active-duty members,
veterans, and dependents. We have free food, coffee, and more! We also offer a wide
variety of programs and events for members of our community.
The VSC plans to continue its successful programming from last semester, as well as
introduce new activities, programs, and services throughout the semester. There will be
events for student veterans, much like our highly popular tailgate events, along with
competitions similar to the Annual Chili Cook-off. So watch for our advertisements of
upcoming events.
We offer free tutoring in math and are adding a tutor in biology and chemistry. To sign
up for this assistance, simply stop by the VSC and get your name on the roster. We also
have some new faces in the VSC staff this semester, so make sure to stop by and say “hi”.
We’ve been saving everyone’s mugs and we have plenty of new mugs for those who need
them (we offer a free coffee mug to our VSC patrons!).
Drop by during our hours (7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Mon – Thur, 7a.m. – 6.pm Fri) and meet the
new staff!
