Blog 14: Topic Proposal

Helping veterans who are returning from deployment overseas so that they can be successful in college when they return. What can we do to make this transition easier for them when they return ? How can we help them by hosting a veteran's workshop ? 

Connecting this to campuses who have a high population of student veterans who've been deployed to in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. Getting the communities involved as well to help show the they have support.

I've met a plenty of veterans in my time and I do think something like this would allow a smoother transition back in the college realm especially for the younger veterans who maybe alone. Educating them on the resources that they have available to them as well would.

  1. You should have no problem finding a community partner, and you've already got some research. I think we can bring this one home, eh?
