Thank You for Your Service: Military Initiatives on College Campuses
Wilson, Kristin Bailey
New Horizons in Adult Education & Human Resource Development, v26 n3 p54-60 Sum 2014
Military students and their dependents arrive on college campuses with a diverse array of academic goals and support needs. A military friendly college understands that military students are transitioning from the professional military environment to the workforce, and academic work is part of that transition. A military friendly college is not one with a single office of military student services where all military students are referred, but is a culture of support that builds on the skills veterans bring to the academic setting, and supports the veterans' transition into the workforce. This article will profile military students and a sampling of military students services at Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
