Student Veteran Life is a unit founded by student veterans, for student veterans. As such, in order to build on the strength of organic and authentic community building and effectively bridge the civilian-military divide on campus, Student Veteran Life is led by a team of experienced and diverse veterans. Having former military service members who understands the transitional needs of student veterans is paramount to our success as a unit. Transitioning student veterans need to have access to someone who has shared their unique experiences and has successfully navigated from service in the military to service as a civilian. Our unit serves a diverse community of scholars who have served their country and now want to advance their lives and education at the University of Washington.
