Veteran and Military Service Committee
Committee Charge
Started in 2015, the SOCHE Veteran and Military Service Committee is charged with educating, developing, and suggesting policy, programming and GI Bill related practices that support student veterans and military connected students transitioning to college, being successful during college, and successfully transitioning out of college. Our focus includes:
- Considering joint policy (suggestions/endorsements) that the group can take to their campuses
- Sharing resources for staff/faculty/administrators who work with veterans and active duty military
- Programs that support campus education about the needs of veterans
- Joint/shared programming among/between institutions
- Updates on benefit changes, best practices for benefit allocation
- Support for financial literacy education for student veterans
