The Veteran's View
Pellegrin, Jeanette
About Campus, v17 n6 p16-21 Jan-Feb 2013
In one important way, student-veterans are like all other students. They need supportive relationships to achieve their academic goals. Serving these students well means learning their stories and helping them succeed. In the process, some of these people may change one's life. In this article, the author shares the touching stories of some of the many student-veterans she has served and provides a list of recommendations for those who share her commitment to this special population of students.
