A message for friends, family and alumni

On Veterans Day and every day, we celebrate our brave servicemen and women who make sacrifices for us and our country. 

We are especially grateful for our student veterans who selflessly balance their military obligations with their school work, their families, and so much more. 

Thank you for your service.
