Identifying the Camouflage: Uncovering and Supporting the Transition Experiences of Military and Veteran Students
Williams-Klotz, Denise N.; Gansemer-Topf, Ann M.
Journal of The First-Year Experience & Students in Transition, v29 n1 p83-98 Spr 2017
This study summarizes the qualitative findings from a multi-institutional study about the college transition experiences of military and veteran students, specifically students' articulation of their needs. Findings reveal (a) a lack of inprocessing, (b) need for community, and (c) institutional invisibility. Using the Student Veteran Transition Model developed by Livingston, Havice, Cawthon, and Flemming (2011) as a guide, four recommendations for institutional practice are provided.
