VET Living Learning Community
I’m Joshua Rider, Assistant Director for the Center for Adult and Veteran Services (CAVS). I would like to congratulate you on your acceptance to Kent State University and your decision to pursue an academic career.
As a new student veteran, you have many questions: What will my new schedule be like? How does the GI Bill work exactly? Where will I live when I’m in college?
We have an exciting offer that might make that last question a little easier! This semester, CAVS is rolling out a brand new living and learning opportunity: Valor through Education and Training (VET). This is community of student veterans, individuals with similar experiences, living together in the residence halls and learning how to be a successful college student.
VET offers a living environment geared toward the student veteran, with accommodations in McDowell Hall, a hall reserved for juniors, seniors, and students age 21+. Programs are scheduled throughout each semester in career guidance, academic advising, involvement on-campus, and study skills, to name just a few. Also, students in the community will be scheduled in 2-3 classes per semester, together, to create a comfortable feel for that first time back in school.
In order to find out more, and how to take the next step, please email me at jrider@kent.edu.
Please, don’t hesitate to take advantage of this great opportunity!
