College campuses are accustomed to serving various populations and typically offer professional development for faculty and staff to assist those students. However, most institutions do not offer specific professional training targeted toward serving military-connected students--those students who have previously served in the US military, are currently serving, or those who are using benefits from a parent or spouse. This population is very different from the others on campus, and campuses need to do more to assist them reach their academic goals. The Supporting Transitioning and Returning Service Members (STARS) Project provides a research-based, timely, and sustainable professional development program that is fully transferable and applicable to all institutions of higher education.
